An MLI Voice: Dr. LR Pathak

June 1, 2010

Over the past several months the Ministry of Health and Population has been preparing and writing its second five-year Health Sector Programme-Implementation Plan (NHSP-IP 2) 2010-2015. Preparations for the plan preceded a thorough review of the previous plan. In so doing, the current plan represents a continuation and further refinement of the previous plan to build on past successes, which included the implementation of cost-effective, evidence-based health interventions. The upcoming plan envisions added efforts in the areas of safe motherhood, child health, nutrition, population and family planning. And, due to a rise in non-communicable diseases and injuries, focuses on communication interventions to change behaviour.

Considering my prior work at the global policy level and my knowledge of the public health field in Nepal, I thought this rather challenging assignment would be a prefect match to my professional and personal aspirations. As I had expected, developing the first year work plan and establishing working relations with senior leaders at the MoHP turned out to be both demanding and rewarding.

    Even though I have worked in Sierra Leone in the past, the role of MLI Country Lead has given me the opportunity to build upon these previous experiences and to work closely with members of the Ministry of Health and Sanitation (MOHS), to support the implementation of health policies and reforms that they have prioritized.
