Through mid-term review of the National Strategy and Action Plan for Integrated Services on Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health 2016-2025 (the RMNCAH strategy), the strategic shift from programme-based approach to people centred approach was proposed in order to minimize missed opportunity.

WHO was requested by the national RMNCAH committee secretariat to provide technical support on dissemination and operationalization of the “people-centred” integrated service delivery based on the revised strategy.
