Rural Health Development Project
Through its project planning and implementation approach RHDP has empowered community groups, especially women, and also influenced the village development committees (VDCs) to integrate community health demands in VDC planning, and thus contributed to local state building and better service delivery. After 17 years of cooperation, this will be the last phase of RHDP that will focus on consolidation and sustainability. As in the past, the project will aim at improving overall health status of people, especially of women, poor and disadvantaged groups in remote areas of Dolakha, Ramechhap and Okhaldhunga districts. Primary beneficiaries will be women, children, adolescents, and men, with special attention to Dalits and Janajatis.
