GRANT PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT 12. Background and Description The Government of Tajikistan identifies primary health care and Maternal and Child Health as top priorities in its comprehensive National Health Sector Strategy, 2010–2020. Poor child health outcomes in Tajikistan were caused by systemic health sector issues, including chronically limited financing and poor quality health services; poverty, particularly in rural areas; limited knowledge of health-promoting behavior; and poor access to clean water. The general population had insufficient access to health-related information and lacked awareness of the causes of ill health. The project area (Rasht district) is one of the most traditional and conservative areas in Tajikistan. Women from the area were less likely than women from other regions to participate in community activities or seek health services. Both the Infant Mortality Rate and Under-five Mortality Rate were 10%–15% higher in Rasht district compared with other regions. The district is one of the poorest in the country and had the highest rate of food insecurity (11%–18% of the population was classified as extremely food insecure and 74% as moderately food insecure). At appraisal, the project would support combined and interlinked health and transport interventions to improve the health of mothers and children. The bridge access and road improvement together with health interventions would have multiple synergetic social and economic effects: (i) improved transport services (e.g., availability, frequency, reliability, and costs); (ii) greater accessibility to health care resulting in improved health outcomes for women and children (due to an increased number of people seeking treatment for illness due to reduced travel times); (iii) better access to education opportunities; (iv) uninterrupted flow of agricultural goods and services (such as seed, fertilizer, and crops) across the river; and (v) growth in livestock raising through improved access to veterinary services and better access to market opportunities. The improved accessibility would increase economic opportunities of poor rural households, which in turn would contribute to increased income and, thus, improved health outcomes among women and children. The health information component of the project would increase demand for health services, and the project would support activities to match the demand by increasing the supply and quality of health services. The project would help ensure this supply by enhancing the mobility of health personnel and supplies by reestablishing the bridge and road connection and equipping the rural hospital in Navobod with a safe and operating ambulance. The Country Partnership Strategy for 2010–2014 emphasized ADB's continuing involvement in the transport sector through investments in domestic and regional road links, and includes gender mainstreaming as a core cross-cutting theme. The project would contribute to achieving MDG 4 (reduce child mortality) and MDG 5 (improve maternal health) in the project area. 13. Grant Development Objectives The primary objective of the project was to improve maternal and child health results for isolated rural communities of five jamoats in Rasht district,1 one of the poorest regions of the country with the highest rate of food insecurity. Health services were poor and knowledge of health-promoting behavior was limited. The situation had worsened since March 2009 when the only bridge connecting the communities to the district center was destroyed by flooding. Residents had to make a 17-kilometer detour to access the road to the district center. This had seriously constrained access
