We are delighted to have concluded a two-day conference on the Role of Decentralisation in Health organised by @HSTPIndia, @HAPKerala & @Janaagraha1 on 27th & 28th Feb in #NewDelhi.
The conference deliberated on the method and impact of decentralization on primary healthcare.
Parallel committees create havoc. Communities want their needs met, not departments. #Education, #health, livelihoods, #water & sanitation need to converge. Panchayats can facilitate a people's planning process where needs are addressed convergently -Mohan HL #Decentralization
