German contribution to the Health Equity and Quality Improvement Programme (H-EQIP)

active

The FC measure serves to support and participate in the donor community's Health Equity and Quality Improvement Programme (H-EQIP). The programme objective of H-EQIP - and thus also the module objective - is to contribute to the fair use of high-quality health services for poor and vulnerable population groups and to intervene quickly and effectively in the event of a health crisis covered by the programme. By contributing to improved quality of services in the public health sector and by strengthening and further developing existing social security mechanisms in the event of illness, especially for poor population groups, the H-EQIP health basket supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 3 (ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages) and Sustainable Development Goal 1 (end poverty in all forms everywhere) in Cambodia. The project also works towards improving gender equality (Sustainable Development Goal 5). The target group of the nationwide H-EQIP programme is the population of Cambodia, with particular attention to poor and vulnerable population groups.
