Summary[edit]

Description

International Development Minister Lynne Featherstone meets with a newly qualified Community Health Assistant and travels with her to a household in a rural location. The assistant shows the Minister her bike, provided by the Ministry of Health in Zambia, which she uses to visit rural families in Monze, Southern Province. UK aid is training a new cadre of 300 Community Health Assistants to deliver health services in rural areas.

In Zambia only one in four children under two have a minimum acceptable diet and 45% of children are stunted. Mothers in Zambia are also 75 times more likely to die in pregnancy than mothers in the UK. Zambia is working to improve health services in rural areas, scale up the control of malaria and provide better reproductive choices to women.
