In some, we are experts in development of community health workers provide a basic care and to answer simple questions about health. In others, we will create supply chains and we establish protocols for medications that patients can have access to effective manner. In others, we help create systems of health information for health workers and to collect and analyze more data – ranging from the number of births and deaths was more complex information such as number of women receiving prenatal care in a clinic and returning to give birth. Countries must have a system for collecting and analyzing data in order to continuously monitor and improve their performance.
Secondly, we focus on the needs and contributions of women and girls who are too often neglected and poorly served by professionals who do not notice their suffering and do not listen to their concerns. If we promote and the health of women and girls is probably for their own sake but for the sake of their families and of their communities because when a woman’s health is suffering, his family suffers any repercussions and village suffers. Conversely, when women are in good health, the benefits are thereby multiplied.
Too often, social, economic and cultural factors that limit the access of women and girls to health services – violence has character gender, child marriage, female genital mutilation, lack of education, lack of access to economic opportunities and other forms of discrimination – are neither recognized nor treated so. We link our health programs to our efforts in the field of development to address political problems, economic, social and sexual underneath. And we work with governments, civil society groups and individuals to the needs of women were identified as capital – not only by us but by the ministers of health and people at the base who administer care every day – so they are included in the budgets and plannings of the ministries of finance, prime ministers and presidents.
Third, we improve the way we measure and evaluate our impact. This means that we give less priority to the “input” and the “results and impacts, that is to say, we will determine our success not simply on the number of nets distributed by us but by the number of people who do not contract malaria because they use them properly – more accurate overview that requires us to invest in improvements to the way we collect, analyze and share the data.
