SERAC-Bangladesh is working to promote easy access to sexual and reproductive health services under the Improving SRHR in Dhaka project by developing networking between General Practitioners (GP) and Projonon Shasthya Bondhus of the Community Action Groups (CAGs). 120 CAGs work in 120 different areas, and each team is connected with 1 GP of their respective area. A networking meeting with each team’s respective GP is arranged after the orientation of the Projonon Shasthya Bondhu.
SERAC-Bangladesh has organized 2113 GP and Volunteers networking meetings till November 2024. This meeting aimed to introduce the volunteers to the General Practitioner to discuss the roles and responsibilities of volunteers, update on community group formation, and develop coordination among GPs and volunteers for working in the community. Also, these meetings enhance easy access to sexual and reproductive health information and services for the community’s mass people. The project is technically supported by Ipas Bangladesh and funded by Global Affairs Canada via the HealthBridge Foundation of Canada.
