In Bangladesh, the Directorate General of Family Planning (DGFP) has a long history of producing technical documentation on population and development, maternal, newborn, and child health, and family planning issues. The directorate has been creating, distributing, and disseminating different kinds of policy guidelines, training materials, SBCC materials, reports, newspaper articles, newsletters, etc. since Bangladesh gained its independence. DGFP IEM Unit maintains a "Resource Center," which is a collection of written and audio-visual materials, at the DGFP building in Kawran Bazar. By launching an online Digital Archive, DGFP recently extended its services into the digital sphere. The USAID Shukhi Jibon project provided DGFP with both financial and technical support. This archive will provide a secure framework for the documents' storage in future. This also creates an immense opportunity for public health professionals, researchers, academia, and program managers, to have quick, online access to the knowledge materials that have been produced by the DGFP. Currently, the USAID Shukhi Jibon project is working closely for continuous enrichment of the archive to uphold the technical credibility of the directorate.

dc.description.abstract | The Human Resources Branch of the Health Services Division (former Human Resource Management Unit), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MOHFW) has taken the initiative to apply the Workload Indicators for Staffing Need (WISN) methodology developed by WHO at public sector health service delivery systems in selected districts. The Human Resources Branch, MOHFW in collaboration with the USAID-funded MaMoni Health System Strengthening (HSS) Project, conducted this study in two selected districts - Kushtia and Brahmanbaria (B. Baria) and a medical college hospital - Rajshahi Medical College Hospital to develop a comprehensive picture of workload at public sector health service delivery in Bangladesh and to provide evidence for better policies on health workforce planning, distribution, and service efficiency. | en_US |
