USAID's MaMoni MNCSP, implemented by Save the Children and consortium partners, aims to contribute to reducing maternal and neonatal mortality in Bangladesh through increased equitable utilization of quality maternal and newborn health services (MNH). The project supported the Bangladesh Government's Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in improving MNH service utilization in 17 districts and Sandwip upazila, benefiting 36 million people, and provides national-level support in scaling up evidence-based interventions. Kudos to all those involved in the project for their support towards achieving Bangladesh's goal of ending preventable deaths among mothers and newborns.

Remakri, under the Thanchi Upazila of Bandarban district, is the remotest union in the hill tracts and one of the hardest-to-reach areas of the country. Even after fifty years of independence, people of this area were completely deprived of healthcare services. They had to travel by boat and walk for about 2.5 hours to reach Thanchi Upazila Sadar to avail the necessary health care services.
USAID’s MaMoni Maternal and Newborn Care Strengthening Project supports the Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh to deliver maternal and newborn services at 147 hard-to-reach unions. These hard-to-reach areas include underprivileged communities living in the various chars, haors, tea gardens, and hills.
USAID’s MaMoni MNCSP has made a unique contribution to the strengthening of healthcare in hard-to-reach areas by establishing the only healthcare center in Remakri union.
Let's hear the story from Jin, a midwife working at this healthcare center in Remakri.

বাংলাদেশের পার্বত্য অঞ্চল বান্দরবান জেলার মধ্যে সবচেয়ে দূর্গম ও স্বাস্থ্যসেবা বঞ্চিত এলাকা হলো থানচি উপজেলার রেমাক্রি ইউনিয়ন। স্বাধীনতার পঞ্চাশ বছর পরও এখানকার মানুষ স্বাস্থ্যসেবা থেকে একেবারেই বঞ্চিত ছিলো। রেমাক্রিবাসিকে প্রয়োজনীয় স্বাস্থ্যসেবা নিতে প্রায় ২.৫ ঘন্টা সময় নৌকা ভ্রমণ ও পায়ে হেঁটে থানচি উপজেলা সদরে যেতে হয়।
