Focuses on the delivery of primary health care (PHC), the Aga Khan Foundation has been a major donor agency over the past ten years supporting health care initiatives in Southeast Asia and other later developing countries. Emphasises on the mobilization of community involvement and how that participation contributed to increased program effectiveness and sustainability. The most effective health care interventions were immunizations for young children and tetanus toxoid for pregnant women, while increased oral rehydration therapy for diarrhea proved to be moderately successful.
