Supporting innovative health interventions for women and children since the 1980s.
- Jhpiego supported the government of Nepal in developing a scorecard for maternal and perinatal death surveillance and response (MPDSR)—the first of its kind using the indicators from the World Health Organization’s MPDSR implementation guide—to monitor the trend of maternal and perinatal deaths and review action plans. The scorecard has been digitized, linked with reporting forms and integrated into the national web-based MPDSR system.
Our Work in Nepal
MOMENTUM Country and Global Leadership
MOMENTUM is a suite of projects, funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development, that aims to accelerate reductions in maternal, newborn and child mortality and morbidity in high-burden countries by increasing host country commitment and capacity to provide high-quality, integrated health care. Each of the projects has a specific focus area; together they provide a comprehensive, flexible package of support for countries as they overcome context-specific health challenges towards sustainable development. The six-year, Jhpiego-led MOMENTUM Country and Global Leadership project focuses on: 1) providing targeted technical and capacity development assistance to our missions, partner countries and local organizations; and 2) contributing to global technical leadership and policy dialogue for improved maternal, newborn and child health outcomes. Jhpiego’s sub-partners under this project are: Save the Children, Johns Hopkins University International Vaccine Access Center, Quicksand, Matchboxology, BAO Systems, Avenir Health, McKinsey and Company, PACT, Institute for Healthcare Improvement, Christian Connections for International Health and Ubora Quality Institute.
Adolescent Health Project
This five-year project, led by CARE, is expanding the demand, supply and use of quality, adolescent-responsive health services and products across 60 municipalities in Nepal through a systems strengthening approach. Under this project, Jhpiego is implementing training, mentoring, quality improvement and health system strengthening at all levels to ensure high-quality, adolescent-responsive health services and products are available and accessible to adolescents in both the public and private sectors.
