ductive health programs more efficient, equitable and financially
sustainable. Please feel free to forward this announcement to those
who might be interested in participating or nominating a participant.

Ministries of Health, Education, Women's Affairs, Labor, Population
and Welfare and Finance and/or Planning, representatives of NGOs,

are expected to cover the subsidized course fee of US$ 1,500, the
