Last year, G-Watch released the PRO-Health Monitoring Report: The Imperatives of Strengthening Community-Based Health Services. The report presents the findings of PRO-Health monitoring conducted by about 300 volunteer-monitors in 13 sites all over the country from April 2023 to February 2024. The monitoring covered 257 health units mostly visited twice and interviewed 794 health workers and 1,364 citizen-beneficiaries using three monitoring tools designed according to the multi-level monitoring approach of G-Watch. In consideration of the monitoring findings, the review of evidence and problem-solving sessions in all the sites, a set of PRO-Health reform agenda was crafted, which is also presented in the report.
To reach a broader audience this year, PRO-Health is intensifying its dissemination of its knowledge outputs, stories and data on social media. See here, here, here and here for its recent posts.
The newest public dissemination material produced by G-Watch is an audio-visual presentation on the PRO-Health Monitoring Report. Delivered in Filipino, the AVP aims to make the findings of PRO-Health more accessible and understandable. The AVP is now being used in events of G-Watch all over the country.
Promoting Rights Organizing in Health (PRO-Health) is a health rights organizing initiative of G-Watch with Accountability Research Center (ARC), several local governments and civil society groups. PRO-Health aims to strengthen transparency, participation and accountability in public health governance by building coalitions and alliances among citizens, groups, communities and government allies around health rights, and by facilitating learning and problem-solving among accountability frontliners, rights defenders and allied government champions to come up with pro-people and bottom-up solutions to systemic barriers and hurdles to reproductive, maternal, newborn and adolescent health (RMNCAH) services.
