The USAID Quality Health Care Project will conduct workshops on maternal and child health clinical mentoring in Almaty and Astana on Oct.3-5 and Oct.6-9. The Quality Health Care Project will conduct the workshops as part of its five-year program to strengthen public health systems in Central Asia and to improve the health of the region's population, the US Embassy in Astana reported.

The workshops will bring together maternal and child health specialists from the National Maternal and Child Health Center in Astana and the Maternal and Child Health Center in Almaty to learn about clinical mentoring and supportive supervision.

The Kazakh government and USAID have partnered to implement wide-ranging health care reforms since 1994. To increase the effectiveness and sustainability of these reforms, and to improve the quality of health care services, USAID is working with the Health Ministry to build capacity by training a team of national clinical mentors to provide guidance and positive reinforcement to Kazakh health care professionals.

Over the next several years, the USAID Quality Health Care Project will work to further improve the health status of Central Asians by building the capacity of public health systems to better meet the needs of vulnerable groups

USAID was created in 1961 by American President John F. Kennedy and is funded by the American people. Since 1992, USAID has supported local efforts to improve economic growth, governance, and the quality of health and education in Kazakhstan.
