Tajikistan continues to operate health care similar to the Soviet era, but there are opportunities for positive growth
Current challengesTop-down, hospital-based
Limited focus on primary
Very few GPs
Unequal distribution of funds between hospitals (49%) and out-patient, primary care (14%)
OpportunitiesSupport the Government in implementing Health Reform according to the National Health Strategy (2010-2020)
Increase the knowledge and ability of communities to protect and promote health by applying gender-based behavior-change interventions.
