04. Reduce child mortality.
(At least 2 hours)
Refer to slides :
Millennium goal 4 :
Reduce child mortality.
Target 05 : Reduce by two thirds the mortality rate
amongst children under 5.
On
Millennium Goal 4 ( Target 05)
read :
Analysis of the causes of financial leakage : health.
In depth analysis of the causes of financial leakage : health.
Analysis of the Plan of Implementation, Goal 4 (target 05).
Refer
also to Model file 05.62 :Public health structures.
Millennium
goal 4 (target 05) is about the reduction of mortality amongst children under
5.
The
following indicators were chosen :
Indicator
13 : Under-five mortality rate. (UNICEF)
Indicator
14 : Infant mortality rate. (UNICEF)
Indicator
15 : Proportion of 1 year old children immunised against measles. (UNICEF)
During
your analysis of the Plan of Implementation, Goal 4 (target 05) it was seen that most deaths are due to
causes complementary to the diseases themselves , such as hunger, hygiene,
smoke in and around dwellings, and the lack of simple accessories.
Actions
under integrated development projects under the Model include :
Hygiene
education courses for women and in schools. (Details :
Block 4, section 2, 1. Health clubs.)
Availability
of clean drinking water and complete sanitation structures. (Details :
Block 4, section 5, 01. Drinking water structures : organisation ;
02. Drinking water structures : technique.)
Aeration
(elimination of smoke) in homes. (Block 4, section 5 :
08. Structures for the elimination of smoke in and
around homes.)
A
varied diet. ( Details : block 5, Section 4: Food crisis. )
A
complete system for waste recycling. (Details : Block 4, section 5, 05. Water recycling structures
: organisation. ; 06. Waste recycling structures : technique.)
Drainage
of stagnant waters. (Details : Block 4, section
5 : 10. Health structures.)
Preventive
measures against mosquitoes, flies and vermin. (Details :
Block 4, section 5 : 10. Health structures.)
Basic
nursing services. (Details : Block 4, section 5 :
10. Health structures.)
Medicines
distribution system (Details
: Block 4, section 5 : 10. Health structures.)
A
bicycle-ambulance service.(Details : Block 4, section
5 : 10. Health
structures .)
Immunisation
against measles is, on the other hand NOT COVERED.
1. Opinion.
On one page make a list of the three
indicators for Millennium goal 4 :
Reduce child mortality. .Next to them write your evaluation of how they are covered
under integrated development projects. At the bottom of the page, write your
conclusions.. Bear in mind that Millennium
Goal 3 applies at the national level, while individual integrated development
projects under the Model apply to areas with +/- 50.000 inhabitants. To attain
national coverage, about 20 projects for each 1.000.000 people must be set
up.
Note that immunisation against measles is not
recognised under the Model. Neither are vaccinations against other diseases. On
this subject refer to your
in-depth
analysis of the causes of financial leakage: health.
On
pages 95—97 of its report
Making the MDGs Work for All UNIFEM
adds some extra indicators to target 05 (Millennium goal 4) :
«4.a
Increase the number of men sharing responsibility with women for the
care and health of under-five children.
4.a.1 Men as a proportion of those bringing under-five
children to health clinics, by sex of child (from clinic records).
4.a.2 Number of men aware of health and immunization
requirements for under-five children (from MICS).
4 b Sex-disaggregated data on infant mortality and
data disaggregated by sex and age for child mortality are available and used in
analysis and monitoring.
4.c
Increase in evidence-based policies and programmes building on analysis of the
factors leading to higher mortality rates for female infants and under-five
girls.
4.c.1 Number of studies of the factors leading to
higher mortality for female infants and under-five girls.
4.c.2 Number of new policies and programmes addressing
the issue.
4.c.3 Development of indicators for monitoring the
effectiveness of these policy and programme responses.
4.c.4 Attendance of under-fives at clinics and
hospitals, by age and sex of child.
4 d Increase in evidence-based policies and programmes
building on analysis of the factors leading to sex selective abortions of
female foetuses.
4.d.1 Number of studies of factors leading to
sex-selective abortions of female foetuses.
4.d.2 Number of new policies and programmes addressing
the issue.
4.d.3 Development of indicators for monitoring the
effectiveness of these policy and programme responses.
4.d.4 Number of abortions performed, by sex of foetus (available
in some countries from health system records).
4.d.5 Number and sex of other living children at the
time of the abortion.
4 e Reduce the number of sex selective abortions of
female foetuses by 5 percent* per year until they are eliminated.
2.
Research.
Make a chart with 5 columns .In the left-hand column write all the
indicators 4 a-
In the course of your analysis of Millennium Goal 3 and its relationship with
the Plan of Implementation of the Millennium Goals the
importance of the following factors was underlined:
-investments
in infrastructures to reduce the time dedicated by women and girls on unpaid
work and care
-guaranteeing
the rights of women and young girls to property and inheritance.
-elimination
of the inequality in jobs through reduction of the dependence of women on
informal activities, the reduction of salary differences between men and women,
and reduction in job segregation (concentration of men and women in different
occupations and industries and above all the concentration of women in the
worst-paid occupations and industries)
-elimination of violence against women and
girls.
3. Opinion.
On one page write 4 short paragraphs and a conclusion describing how
these indicators can be achieved by integrated development projects. Where
applicable, make proposals on how they could be incorporated in integrated
development projects.
4. Opinion.
On one page briefly give your opinion on Millennium Goal 4 (target 05).
