“ *Balochistan is the first province to get Maternal, Perinatal Death Surveillance & Response Bill passed by the Provincial Cabinet”*

MPDSR, is a requirement of “International Human Rights Body”; it was crucial as Balochistan has the highest IMR, MMR compared to rest of provinces.

The crux is that through this system not only number of deaths will be recorded throughout Balochistan rather cause of death too; to monitor d trends and come up with evidence based interventions.

For the same a joint meeting was convened with Dr. Asif Shahwani- MS BMC and his team, Dr. Lubna Khalil- Health Commission, Dr. Asfand Sherani- WHO, Dr. Sadia- UNFPA; to discuss key progress areas & strategy to ensure effective and efficient implementation of the MPDSR Act across Balochistan.
