INTRODUCTION
The concept of “Primary Health Care” came into existence, following a joint WHO-UNICEF International Conference at Alma-Ata, USSR on 12th September 1978.
The governments of 134 Countries and many voluntary agencies at Alma-Ata Conference called for acceptance of WHO goal of “Health for All by 2000 AD” and proclaimed Primary Health Care as a way to achieving Health for All.
This approach has been described as “Health by the people” and “placing people’s health in people’s hand”.
Primary Health Care is the first level of contact of individuals, the family and community with the national health system, where essential health care is provided.
At this level that health care will be most effective within the context of the area’s need and limitations.
DEFINITION
• Primary Health Care is defined as,
“Essential health care based on practical, scientifically, sound and socially acceptable methods and technology made universally accessible to individuals and families in the community through their full participation and at a cost that community and the country can afford to maintain at every stage of their development in the spirit of self-determination.”
• The Alma-Ata Conference defined Primary Health Care as follows: -
“Primary health care is essential health care made universally accessible to individuals and acceptable to them, through their full participation and at a cost the community and country can afford.”
CHARACTERISTICS OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE
• It is essential health care, which is based on practical, scientifically sound and socially acceptable methods and technology.
• It should be rendered universally acceptable to individuals and the families in the community through their full participations.
• Its availability should be at a cost, which the community and country can afford to maintain at every stage of their development in a spirit of self-reliance and self-development.
• It requires joint efforts of the health sector and other health related sector like education, food and agriculture, social welfare, animal husbandry, housing, etc.
ELEMENTS OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE
The Alma-Ata Declaration has outlined 8 essential components of Primary health care,
1. Education concerning prevailing health problems and the methods of preventing and controlling them.
2. Promotion of food supply and proper nutrition.
3. An adequate supply of safe water and basic sanitation.
4. Maternal and child health care, including family planning.
5. Immunization against major infectious diseases.
6. Prevention and control of locally endemic diseases.
7. Appropriate treatment of common diseases and injuries.
8. Provision of essential drugs.
This presentation deals with Primary Health Care in India. It describes in detail concept & characteristics of PHC. It focuses on structure, service delivery & challanges in front of Primary Health Care in India.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Twenty years back, a pregnant woman in rural Bangladesh would
have gestated without any sort of maternal care; a newborn baby
would have been raised without any type of immunization.
Now, in Bangladesh, the infant mortality rate has declined from
9.7% live births in 1990 to 3.7% live births in 2011. 82.6% children
of age ≥12 months are now receiving all essential vaccinations
(Ministry of Health Bulletin, 2015). Along with other significant
attributes, health education and health promotion are a
significant contributor to this development.
INTRODUCTION
3. History:
In mid-April of 1958 a grave epidemic of smallpox and cholera took place in
East Pakistan. By the time the epidemic subsided, 30 million Bengalis were
vaccinated for smallpox, which was due largely to motivational approach for
vaccination; which was a precursor to its extensive role in the 1970s helping
WHO eradicate smallpox from Bangladesh.
In 1961, a pilot public health education research project began in Dacca
(Present Dhaka), East Pakistan, with the goals of developing educational
programs and research in educational methods in family planning.
In 1963, ‘Comilla Approach’, for community development to address social,
economical and health problems were undertaken.
The ‘Dacca Family Growth Study’ was implemented in 1964 to measure the
relative effectiveness of family planning education to men only, women only
and to both groups.
In 1967-68 in an cholera epidemic in the then East Pakistan, a controlled
cholera vaccine field trial was conducted, which needed drive to educate and
motivate people.
Caritas Bangladesh began in 1967 as Caritas East Pakistan with agenda of
health and nutrition; adolescents' health care; pro-life reproductive health
education.

5. The establishment of Community Health Clinics (CCs) in the rural
areas of Bangladesh has played a significant role in making a
huge change in public health through PHC and health education
since 1998.
In order to enable the vulnerable population of rural areas to
have access to basic health services, one community clinic was
established for every 6,000 people within each region. Currently
the program has provided access to basic services for almost all
the people of rural Bangladesh, with the establishment of 13,136
(As on June 2016) community clinics.
ROLE OF COMMUNITY CLINICS (CCs) IN HEALTH PROMOTION
Present Situation:
6. The major services include providing health counseling and health
education to fight communicable diseases and to create
awareness about hygiene and sanitation. Public health promotion
in Bangladesh through the community health clinics deserves the
attention of a critical analysis due to its profound influence in
modern Bangladesh as well as its global acceptance as a pro-
people public health program model.
7. m-Health (i.e. mobile-based health systems) tools are also being
utilized for health promotion and awareness. Non-government
agencies through health workers and information workers (e.g.,
Info-Ladies) promote basic health care information targeting
prevention and linking with health care institutions in case of
need.
- The Info Ladies bike hundreds of miles,
bringing laptop computers and internet
connections to thousands in impoverished
farming villages.
- Villagers can contact loved ones via Skype,
use social media like Facebook and find out
about government services.
- Vital service in a country where only five
million of 152m have internet access.
- Info Ladies also offer advice on health
matters and are trained to give blood tests.
8. Information and Education for Health (IEH) activities in the Health
and Population Sector began in 1998 when the Bureau of Health
Education was established under the Directorate General of Health
Services (DGHS) in the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare
(MoHFW).
The Bureau of Health Education has contributed significantly to the
health education and promotion of the people in Bangladesh.

nutritional issues.
Programs under BHE:
14. General objective of the model village:
-To develop an area to serve as model area for application of
health education approaches with various methods and tools of
health education
-To enable the people of that area to solve their health
problems by their own action and efforts and
-To use that area as demonstration area of health education.

program.
HEED Bangladesh is a National, non-profit making voluntary
organization, registered with the Government of Bangladesh in
October 1975. 'HEED' stands for 'Health, Education & Economic
Development'. It is committed to provide Health Education and
Health Promotion activities to remote areas in Bangladesh.
46.
47. The Government of Bangladesh and UNICEF have identified
the need to ensure better health awareness and practices
from an early age. To support this process the Directorate of
Primary Education (DPE) and UNICEF collaborated on a 2008
survey to identify the current status and future needs of the
School Health and Nutrition program in Bangladesh’s primary
schools.
A health initiative entitled Water Sanitation and Hygiene
project (WASH) was developed by CARE-International,
Bangladesh as a relief effort after the devastating 1991
cyclone in Bangladesh. WASH focused on the repair of
damaged water sources, construction and supply of hygienic
latrines, hygiene education component that focused on
drinking safe water , the installation and use of latrines , and
hand washing.

hygiene intervention for children and their caregivers
• Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
• To promote positive behaviors related to sanitation and
hygiene among children ages 3 to 7 years and their caregivers
in low-resource communities in Bangladesh
• Provides critical messaging on using the latrine, wearing
footwear when defecating, promoting hand-washing to break
the oral-fecal route of disease transmission, safe water
collection and purification practices, and improved waste
disposal practices.
• Project includes both mass media and community and school-
engagement components
52. The economic and demographic transition in Bangladesh is
increasingly causing adverse effects on both health and wealth
of the population. High consumption of tobacco, changes in
eating habits, increasing substance abuse, lack of physical
activity and mushrooming of unregulated food and beverage
industries are behind this increase.
Communication channels, both electronic and print, are
channeling information for public consumption. Children are
being appraised by information inclusion in the school
curriculum. In spite of all these measures health promotion is yet
to gain the desired momentum, and this is due to dearth in
resource allocation in this area. Taking precedence from other
counties, use of dedicated taxes (from alcohol and tobacco) for
health promotion could be a sustainable solution.
