Description

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) supported Urban Primary Health Care Project (UPHCP) is one of the largest public-private partnerships (PPP) in the delivery of primary health care (PHC) in South Asia. The Government of Bangladesh with the assistance of ADB implemented the Urban Primary Health Care Project (UPHCP) from March 1998 to June 2005. The Second Urban Primary Health Care Project (UPHCP-II), supported by ADB and the Governments of the United Kingdom and Sweden, commenced in July 2005 and was completed in December 2012. The Third Urban Primary Health Care Services Delivery Project (UPHCSDP), supported by ADB and the Government of Sweden, commenced in 2012 and was completed in 2018. Currently, the Additional Financing to UPHCSDP-AF is being implemented and it will be completed in December 2024.

Bangladesh is urbanizing at a rapid pace and the country's urban population is expected to reach 89.5 million (from 39.5 million in 2005) by 2030. Currently, around 40% of the country's total population is urban. Notwithstanding higher economic growth in urban areas, the absolute number of poor households is increasing in urban Bangladesh due to migration of rural poor into urban areas. Studies have shown that the health indicators of the urban poor are as worse as those of the rural poor because of poorer living conditions, and limited urban PHC. Failure to provide urban PHC can have serious negative externalities, e.g., spread of communicable diseases, debilitating epidemics, reduction in economic productivity, among others.

Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy The Project builds on the gains of UPHCP-II by strengthening the pro-poor focus, nutrition provision aspects, reproductive health services, and project implementation; and expand the service provision to other backward areas of Bangladesh. By strengthening and mainstreaming the PPP model of service delivery, the Project encourages alternative ways of public services delivery and enables greater role for the private sector. Through its large focus on women's health, the Project enables greater gender equity. Therefore, UPHCSDP is closely aligned with Bangladesh's National Strategy for Accelerated Poverty Reduction-II and ADB's Country Partnership Strategy. ADB is one of the lead development partners of the Government of Bangladesh in the domain of urban development, which involves a multidimensional approach - economic (roads), public health (water supply), environmental health (sewerage, solid waste management), and primary health care. This holistic approach to urban development also includes transforming institutions to prepare Bangladesh for the rapid urbanization process. The Project is built on the rationale of synergies (blending prevention and promotion with critical PHC) and driving more effective ways of delivering services (through PPPs). The Project continues the momentum gained by Bangladesh towards achieving child, maternal health, and communicable diseases related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects
Environmental Aspects The original project's compliance with the safeguard requirements has been satisfactory and risks have been well-managed. The project remains category B for environment, and will continue to construct new health care centers, improve existing facilities, and enhance climate change resilience and medical waste management. It is not expected to have significant or irreversible negative environmental impacts during construction or operation. Any environmental risks will be effectively addressed through proper mitigation measures with the updated environmental assessment and review framework that has been prepared and disclosed because land and sites for project civil works will be identified by the time implementation begins.
Involuntary Resettlement The project remains category C for both involuntary resettlement and tribes, minor races, ethnic sects, and community peoples. Noland acquisition will be involved because land required will be either government-owned or donated voluntarily. Existing project areas do not overlap with any areas inhabited by tribes, minor races, ethnic sects, and community peoples. The project will screen new health care center sites to ensure social safeguard impacts do not occur.
Indigenous Peoples
Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation
During Project Design Primary stakeholders include selected staff from the Ministry of Local Government, Rural Development, and Cooperatives; Ministry of Health and Family Welfare; project implementation units of the UPHCSDP; NGOs involved in the UPHCSDP; donor consortium; community-based organizations; representatives and officers of city corporations and municipalities; and representatives of the poor and of vulnerable groups. Stakeholders include relevant line ministries and other private providers of health services. A stakeholder analysis was conducted as part of the feasibility study. The study identified key project stakeholders and planned project activities. During project implementation, participatory processes were incorporated into mapping target beneficiaries from urban slum and low-income areas, and into monitoring health services through the neighborhood and ward health committees at the health facilities. Citizen score cards and routine display of up-to-date public information about staffing, stock, facilities, and fee rates were examined to improve accountability of the service providers and facilitate participation of service users in monitoring services. The communication, participation and consultation process were done through a number of workshops, involving NGOs, CBOs and other stakeholders.
During Project Implementation Consultations with primary and secondary stakeholders were done during implementation.
