Best Practices in Scaling Up Madagascar: Scaling Up Across Sectors: The Growth of the Population-Health-Environment Program
This case study, produced as part of JSI’s Best Practices in Scaling Up series, describes the collaboration of population, health, and environmental (PHE) interventions to strengthen development efforts in Madagascar. In the early 2000s, JSI collaborated with various partners to apply PHE initiatives to address inhabitants’ limited access to health care, family planning services, and agricultural extension services. The PHE program noticeably improved key health indicators and land-use practices during its span, and served as a model for other programs seeking to link health and environmental initiatives.
