Description
This document details the achievements and challenges of first six months of the Fiji Health Sector Support Program which commenced on 1 July 2011.
The first annual report notes that during July-August 2011 the contractor established the program management office and procedures (e.g. for financial management and communication), and briefed team members and partners on the program. From mid-August to December 2011 the contractor commenced work planning, budgeting and some start-up activities e.g. training in obstetrics, paediatrics, dietetics, midwifery and mental and oral health.
The report identifies three recurring challenges for program delivery:
- limited absorptive capacity in Ministry of Health, with high staff turnover and vacancies at each level of the health system delaying delivery
- problems in effectively and efficiently formulating detailed proposals for support under the program.
- weak monitoring and evaluation systems in the Ministry of Health do not support evidence-based decision-making on service delivery.
