【Issues】

In Banten Province, infant and maternal mortality 

rates are rather high. There the awareness on health 

and sanitation  is poor and child birth is done at 

home or attended by a traditional birth attendant 

without training. Before PHJ started the support, 

malnutrition child rate was 6.3% due to the lack of 

knowledge of mothers.

【FY2016】PHJ will start its program in Warinkurun

Autonomous  District and continue

Sanitary education in the Sujun Village.

【Support program】

Since 2004, PHJ has been implementing the program to improve maternal and child health,

child nutrition, and health& sanitation conditions through health education of villagers in

cooperation with the provincial health department, local hospitals, clinics, and health centers.

We supported stronger health services, primary health care, and health model village building
