Project narrative

On January 18, 2017, Ambassador Yu Hong and Dr. Senendra Raj Upreti, Secretary of Ministry of Health of Nepal, signed grant commitments for two health projects. One was for the hospital counterpart support and the other was for the establishment of a maternal and child health pilot project. Both agreements were signed between the National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People's Republic of China and the Ministry of Health of the Government of Nepal. The agreement on the Cooperation to Carry out Targeted Hospital Counterpart Support will involve the 4th Hospital of Hebei Medical University in China helping the Nepali B. P. Koirala Cancer Hospital establish a pathology specialist field center. The agreement for the Cooperation to Carry out Maternal and Child Health Pilot Project is intended to help Nepal improve its medical standards in the field of maternal and child health care and cultivate maternal and child health professionals, and involve China donating relevant equipment and medicines to carry out maternal and child health monitoring, screening, and consultation activities.
