Resumen

The National Strategy for Child Survival in Ethiopia is a nation-wide sectoral document with the overall goal of reducing the current under-five mortality of 140/1000 to 67/1000 by 2015, which means a reduction of more than 50% of the 2004 rate. The Health Services Extension Program (HSEP) is the main pillar of the Child Survival Strategy for increasing access to preventive and basic essential curative health services to the majority of the under served population. The Strategy has two phases: 2005 to 2009 and 2010 to 2015. By 2009, most of the new facilities should have been constructed and their staff trained. The subsequent five years are seen as a period of consolidation of the quality and utilization of the services. The document focuses on the health system, but long term achievements need a cross-cutting interventions in other sectors, including reducing poverty, improving food security, raising levels of maternal education and the status of women in society, and the provision of safe water and sanitation.
