HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH FOR STRENGTHENING PRIMARY HEALTH CARE 171 Project Administration Manual Purpose and Process 1. The project administration manual (PAM) describes the essential administrative and management requirements to implement the project on time, within budget, and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Government of Sri Lanka and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The PAM should include references to all available templates and instructions either through linkages to relevant URLs or directly incorporated in the PAM. The Ministry of Health, Nutrition and Indigenous Medicine (MOHNIM) as executing agency and four provincial councils of Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva provinces as implementing agencies are wholly responsible for the implementation of ADB-financed projects, as agreed jointly between the borrower and ADB, and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Government and ADB. ADB staff is responsible for supporting implementation including compliance by MOHNIM and Provincial Councils of the four provinces (Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva provinces) of their obligations and responsibilities for project implementation in accordance with ADB’s policies and procedures. 2. At loan negotiations, the borrower and ADB shall agree to the PAM and ensure consistency with the loan and grant agreements. Such agreement shall be reflected in the minutes of the loan negotiations. In the event of any discrepancy or contradiction between the PAM and the loan and grant agreements, the provisions of the loan and grant agreements shall prevail. 3. After ADB Board approval of the project's report and recommendations of the President (RRP), changes in implementation arrangements are subject to agreement and approval pursuant to relevant government and ADB administrative procedures (including the Project Administration Instructions) and upon such approval, they will be subsequently incorporated in the PAM. Health System Enhancement Project (RRP SRI 51107) I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1. The Health System Enhancement Project (HSEP) will be the first ADB-financed health operation in Sri Lanka after a gap of 20 years. This reentry project will be for $60 million (comprising $37.5 million in concessionary loan and $12.5 million grant, and $10 million equivalent from the Government of Sri Lanka in counterpart funds). It will be delivered through a project investment modality and is expected to be effective from 1 December 2018 and will complete on 30 November 2023. 2. The proposed project will improve efficiency, equity, and responsiveness of the primary health care (PHC) system based on the concept of providing universal access and continuum of care to quality essential health services. 3. The project pursues an equity perspective in planning and delivering of essential primary health services. It expects to further inform and operationalize government PHC reform initiatives to reduce bypassing of PHC facilities by providing more comprehensive services, including for NCDs, develop a referral system, and functionally integrating preventive and curative services. Furthermore, the project will target underserved communities’ access to PHC, and address selected gaps in core public health surveillance in line with the international health regulations (IHR). 4. The project is targeting all nine districts in four provinces of Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva with a special focus on the geographically, socially, and economically- deprived populations. The beneficiary population of the project is approximately 7 million which is 33% of the Sri Lanka population (21 million) while the target population within the four provinces, is estimated to be approximately 2.4 million. 5. Impact and Outcome. The expected project impact is to contribute to the Government development objective1 of ensuring a healthier nation with a more comprehensive PHC system. The project outcome is to improve efficiency, equity, and responsiveness of the PHC system. 6. Key indicators for monitoring. The project outcomes are assessed by observing a (i) 20% increase in outpatient utilization at PHC; (ii) 20% increase in patient satisfaction, knowledge and attitudes on utilization; (iii) 90% of notified notifiable diseases investigated within the stipulated time in the medical officer of health areas in the target provinces; and (iv) cluster system reform implemented and evaluated in all nine clusters. 7. Outputs. The project outputs are (i) PHC enhanced in Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva provinces; (ii) health information system and disease surveillance capacity strengthened; and (iii) policy development, capacity building, and project management supported. 1. Output 1: Primary health care enhanced in Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva provinces. 8. This output intends to strengthen PHC services in the targeted 4 provinces of Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva with a special focus on the socially, economically and geographically disadvantaged populations. The PHC services are defined as primary health care 1 Government of Sri Lanka, MOHNIM. 2016. Sri Lanka National Health Policy 2016–2025. Colombo. 2 services that are provided via curative facilities (Primary Medical Care Units and the Divisional Hospitals), and via the preventive health network led by the Medical Officers of Health. 9. Output 1 will support four sets of activities: (i) development of primary medical care services; (ii) development of primary preventive care services; (iii) public awareness

  • SRI LANKA Floods and Storms
    SRI LANKA: Floods and 29 April 1999 storms Information Bulletin N° 01 The Disaster Unusually heavy rains for this time of year and violent thunderstorms along the western and south-western coast of Sri Lanka between 16 and 21 April caused widespread damage and severe floods in the south-west and south of the country. The main rivers, Kelani and Kalu, rose by over seven feet, and caused additional flooding, made worse by slow run-off. Some of the worst areas received as much as 290 mm of rain in 24 hours, and even the capital, Colombo, where 284 mm fell within 24 hours, experienced bad flooding in many sectors of the city. The worst affected districts are Ratnapura, Colombo, Kalutara, Gampaha, Galle, Kandy, Matara and Kegalle, all located between the coast and the Kandyan highlands. Six persons were reported killed by lightning, landslides or floods. Thousands of houses were damaged or destroyed, and initial official figures place the number of homeless at around 75,000 families (the average family in Sri Lanka consists of five members). In Colombo alone an estimated 12,400 families were affected. The damage is reportedly much worse in the rural areas particularly in Ratnapura District, but precise information is difficult to come by since many of the affected areas are totally cut off, with roads inundated and power and telephone lines damaged. The railway line from Colombo to Kandy has been blocked since 19 April, when boulders from a landslide damaged the tracks. FirstDistricts estimates of affected people areSub-Divisions as follows:

Kuntze) in Sri Lanka Using a GIS-Based Multi-Criteria Approach Sadeeka Layomi Jayasinghe 1,2,*, Lalit Kumar 1 and Janaki Sandamali 3 1 School of Environmental and Rural Science, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia 2 Department of Export Agriculture, Faculty of Animal Science and Export Agriculture, Uva Wellassa University, Passara Road, Badulla 90000, Sri Lanka 3 Department of oceanography and marine geology, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences & Technology, University of Ruhuna, Matara 81000, Sri Lanka * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-040-535-5742 Received: 6 May 2019; Accepted: 5 July 2019; Published: 8 July 2019 Abstract: The potential land suitability assessment for tea is a crucial step in determining the environmental limits of sustainable tea production. The aim of this study was to assess land suitability to determine suitable agricultural land for tea crops in Sri Lanka. Climatic, topographical and soil factors assumed to influence land use were assembled and the weights of their respective contributions to land suitability for tea were assessed using the Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and the Decision-Making Trail and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) model. Subsequently, all the factors were integrated to generate the potential land suitability map. The results showed that the largest part of the land in Sri Lanka was occupied by low suitability class (42.1%) and 28.5% registered an unsuitable land cover. Furthermore, 12.4% was moderately suitable, 13.9% was highly suitable and 2.5% was very highly suitable for tea cultivation.
