Book excerpt: Eritrea is one of the poorest countries in the world, with an average annual per capita income of US$ 200 in 2006, and ranks 157th out of 177 countries in the 2005 human development index. Rain-fed agriculture, the predominant economic activity for more than half the population, is a very risky enterprise and food security remains one of the government's main concerns. Given the security situation the government is concerned about fiscal transparency for national security reasons, but has provided access to fiscal data for a review of the education and health sectors. There have been significant improvements in access to education since independence, and improving the skills of the labor force remains critical for Eritrea's long term development. Eritrea's public resource allocation to education has increased rapidly and at 6.7 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2005 is slightly higher than many countries in the Africa Region. There has been a rapid expansion in tertiary education following investments in 2005 to provide an additional five colleges. The general health status of Eritrea has greatly improved since independence.

Download or read book State building in Post Liberation Eritrea written by Redie Bereketeab and published by Adonis & Abbey Publishers Ltd. This book was released on 2009-05-30 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State-Building In Post-Liberation Eritrea explores the potentials, achievements and challenges facing Eritrea in its efforts to construct a viable state after it became independent in 1991(de facto) and 1993 (de jure). It also examines the post-liberation experience of state building focusing on the institutionalisation, bureaucratisation and democratisation of state organs. The Eritrean state's legitimacy and popularity initially rested on the track record of the Eritrean People's Liberation Front's (EPLF), its efficiency, organisational skill, and capacity to mobilise the population; which spawned hopes and optimism about the future. The book also analyses what happened to those great hopes and optimisms by examining its achievements and failures in this regard. It equally analyses the role played by external factors, particularly the second war with Ethiopia, and its implications for state building in Eritrea.

Download or read book Rethinking School Health written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2011 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the goals of Education for All (EFA) to be achieved, children must be healthy enough not only to attend school but also to learn while there. Because school health and nutrition programs specifically benefit poor, sick, and hungry children, they can make a key contribution to achieving EFA's goals. However, children can benefit only if the programs reach them. Rethinking School Health: A Key Component of Education for All describes how schools have been used as a platform for delivering familiar, safe, and simple health and nutrition interventions to hard-to-reach children in low-income countries. The book's foreword was written jointly by Elizabeth King of the World Bank, Susan Durston of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), and Qian Tang of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), indicating the interagency support for this approach. The book will be of particular interest to those working in the fields of education, health and nutrition, and early childhood development. --Book Jacket.

Book excerpt: This Health Sector Note is the result of the first phase of an open, participatory three-step process for developing the Health Sector Policy and Strategic Plan (HSPSP), and serves as the preliminary basis for further rounds of discussions, and analyses among stakeholders, to arrive at a strategic vision for the national health sector. The socioeconomic situation is reviewed, stipulating Eritrea remains one of the poorest countries in the world, where lack of sustained economic growth, does not hold much promise for a reduction in poverty in the short to medium term. This will constrain growth in personal income and government revenue, and in turn, growth in domestic resources for investment in, and recurrent cost support to, the health sector. The note identifies the strengths, and challenges of the health sector, as well as the state of the human resources and infrastructure of the sector, discussing briefly, the role of the private sector. Adequate resources need to be mobilized and available to health care services, as well as to other related sectors, such as water and sanitation. However, given competing demands on the country's limited resources, actions in all sectors need to be prioritized. Recommended actions include, for the short term, the establishment of a baseline information system, so as to evaluate the performance and cost-effectiveness of specific health programs. Likewise, there is the need to estimate the National Health Accounts to better assess the sector's sources and uses of funds, and, to evaluate alternative sources of revenues, including user charges, and public and private insurance options. Medium-term priorities suggest undertaking unit costing studies to evaluate the public system's technical efficiency, to then provide a framework for a comprehensive health sector development, while long-term priorities include among others, the development of financing options for universal coverage, including public-private insurance mechanisms.
