HEALTH RIGHTS

HELPING NEIGHBORS ADVOcATE FOR THEIR HEALTH RIGHTS

Health is a human right. The government of Mozambique has a responsibility to provide effective and respectful healthcare services to the people of Mozambique. ParCo is working with eight community partners to work in local communities, capturing patient experiences and sharing them with medical officers, with the goal of improving healthcare delivery, transforming the patient experience, and creating people-centered health services. Along with other CBOs (Community Based Organizations) across Mozambique, we have support from PEPFAR through the Community Grants program of the US Embassy. We are grateful to PEPFAR for their financial support and to Namati for their training and technical assistance.
