Health Sector

To realize an inclusive and fair society, JICA will work to empower people in vulnerable positions, including women and youth, by strengthening health and medical services.

It aims to promote maternal and child health services and reproductive health and reduce maternal, newborn, and infant mortality by strengthening the management of regional referral hospitals (RRH) and providing equipment to RRHs. By sharing the 5S-Kaizen-TQM approach over a wide area, JICA aims to improve the quality of health and medical services and provide support for achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC).

In accordance with the government policy of TICAD8 and G7, JICA will consider co-financing through Results Based Loan with other donors.

This is consistent with the JGA "Health and medical care" and the Cluster Strategy "Strengthening diagnosis and treatment capacity of core hospitals."
