FRONTIERS PROJECT
Technical Assistance to the West Bank/Gaza Pilot Health Project

Researchers from FRONTIERS; the Health, Development, Information and Policy Institute; and the Center for Development in Primary Health Care of Al-Quds University worked in partnership with the Palestinian Ministry of Health to assess maternal and reproductive health care at public clinics in Palestine. The research findings were used to develop guidelines that identify health education messages and counseling topics. The project also produced a manual for in-service training and behavior change communication materials.
