On November 1, 2021, the Programme Operator of "Local development, poverty reduction and enhanced inclusion of vulnerable groups" Programme, funded by the EEA Financial Mechanism 2014-2021, signed a contract for a pre-defined project "Healthcare for everyone".  

This project will address systemic problems in maternal and child health, including family planning, and sexually transmitted infections, especially syphilis and congenital syphilis.

In this sense, the main goal of the pre-defined project is to improve communication, efficient use of resources and coordination at the local level in the implementation of health policies for marginalized communities by optimizing the health mediation system, identifying and analyzing problems in the local system level; problems in communicating with local communities and finding flexible working models that meet the diverse specifics of marginalized communities.

The project will be implemented by the Ministry of Health in partnership with the National Network of Health Mediators.

The total budget amounts to EUR 1,109,718 (BGN 2,170,386.46) and the funds are provided entirely by the programme.
