Health Systems Strengthening We work to improve the infrastructure, resources and management of health systems to make them more effective, efficient, and equitable. In June 2021, we established a three-year partnership with Indian Association of Preventive and Social Medicine (IAPSM) to accelerate joint efforts in public health research, policy implementation and community outreach with a commitment to promoting and building people-centric, resilient, and sustainable health systems.
Primary Healthcare services We provide comprehensive, affordable, and accessible primary healthcare services to communities, including preventive care, health promotion, and disease management.
Community outreach We engage with communities to understand their health needs, build trust, and empower them to take charge of their health through education, awareness, and advocacy. At FPHS, we are committed to leveraging data and tech-led innovations to achieve this goal. To this end, we have launched a community based initiative for healthy schools through a community-based approach and engagement with the local elected leaders. This is based upon the principle of 3Ps – Promoting health, Preventing diseases, and Prompt treatment. We intervene at various stages for school health and mental health of the students to ensure their well-being. By the end of 2023, FPHS aims to reach 4000 children across government and private sectors through community participation and at low cost.
Health Communications We use various media and channels to promote health literacy, behavior change, and social norms that support healthy lifestyles and practice.
The FPHS Fellowship program launched in 2022 provided diverse training opportunities to 35+ cohort of PH students and professionals to learn, understand and contribute to new health initiatives.
‘The entwined fate of humans and rivers’- a photo project by the FPHS and our visual storytelling initiative We Photo, won the prestigious LANCET Photography competition and published by THE LANCET – the leading medical journal in December 2022 issue- Sharpening the focus on health stories, highlighting that access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene practices remains out of reach for many disadvantaged people across the world.
FPHS pioneered in paperless mobile device-based field data collection and effectively used the approach for the collection of bottleneck analysis data for midterm review of India New Born Action plan. This was an end to- end paperless exercise. In the year ahead, this would be expanded to additional areas and data collection processes.
