public involvement

Three community clinics have 1 community group and 3 community support groups but their complementarity is not uniform. Various constraints are observed in them - such as formation of committees, management, attendance at meetings, meeting minutes and taking further action, public involvement, ensuring better health services through public participation, etc. Community groups and community support groups should be re-invigorated on their duties and responsibilities through proper training and at the same time a social movement should be developed on healthy lifestyles, creating healthy environment and receiving services in community clinics. Right from the inception of RCHCIB/CBHC, public-private integration and partnership have been given serious consideration for the successful implementation of community clinic activities. Most non-governmental organizations are helping with public engagement through community groups, community support groups and local government representatives, and some organizations are helping with practical research and nutrition activities (BBF and others). All the non-governmental organizations that are interested in supporting the community clinic activities sign an agreement with the CBHC. Immunization programs are organized monthly in 8 locations including community clinics in each union parishad old ward. Community microlevel planning takes place after immunization sessions at community clinics. The meeting is mainly for the exchange of information and time between the Health Assistant, Family Planning Assistant and CHCP. Immunization sessions conducted at community clinics are integrated with satellite clinics. Community microplanning meetings will further strengthen the role of community support groups.

The maternal, sexual and reproductive health and rights activities of Bangladesh funded by Global Affairs, Canada, 2 international organizations (UNICEF and UNSPA), the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and other partners in some areas lagging behind in time targets (Rangamati, Moulvibazar, Sirajganj, Jamalpur ) program will be implemented for 5 years (2017-2022).
