Primary Health Care

Primary Healthcare

Of every 1,000 Pakistani children born, 89 – nearly one in ten – die before they reach five years of age.1 Pakistan ranks 23rd in the world for under-five deaths.2 Over half, 55, die in their first month of life.3 While child mortality declined slowly since 1990, newborn mortality has actually risen.4 Wide disparities exist between rural and urban areas, regions of the country, and differing socio-economic profiles.

In Pakistan, more than 70 million of the population is living below the poverty line. These people don’t have any access to basic facilities including food and water. In addition to that, if they get sick, they don’t have any proper healthcare facilities.

The most important aspect of human well-being is health and in Pakistan, it is most neglected.

There are dismal heartbreaking stories of lives ruined and cut short due to the unavailability of affordable and quality healthcare. An unhealthy population with severely diminished capabilities cannot substantially contribute to the society.
