Description
The National Health Policy was developed based upon the Ministry of Public Health’s expressed core values: Right to a healthy life; greater equity; concern for women, children and other socially disadvantaged groups; and the need to address the problem of poverty by being pro-rural. The health policy presented in this document re-enforces the strong perception of the Ministry of Public Health as an institution working for reform.Content
