Fighting Poverty Through Better Health Care
Asian Development Bank | June 2001
Abstract
This summary of evaluation studies in the health and population sector is the second in the Assessing Development Impact (ADI) Series of the Operations Evaluation Department (OED). It presents the major findings, lessons, issues, and conclusions of OED’s recent studies and reports in the sector. OED’s studies are critical in promoting economic and social development in ADB’s developing member countries through feedback to ADB operational departments and to executing and implementing agencies. Those who desire more in-depth knowledge of the subject areas discussed here, e.g., primary health care, family planning, essential drugs distribution, education and training of medical personnel, are referred to the original studies and reports.
