...INTRODUCTION Socio-economic development for all citizens is the cornerstone of Bangladesh’s constitution. According to the articles 15, 16, 17 and 18 of the constitution, the state has the responsibility to ensure to its citizens certain basic needs such as health, education, food and security. In order to translate these constitutional goals into reality, the Government had undertaken a wide array of public policies. The Policy stands out as one of the most remarkable achievements of the government. Since 1976, this policy emphasis has been reflected in all successive 5-year plans and programs. The population of Bangladesh is likely to grow up to 172 million by the year 2020 and will stabilize at 210 million by the year 2060, even if replacement level fertility (i.e. Net Reproductive Rate-NRR=1) is achieved by the year 2010. 15 MAJOR OBJECTIVES OF THE NATIONAL POPULATION POLICY: The objectives of the National Population Policy are to improve the status of family planning, maternal and child health including reproductive health services and to improve the living standard of the people of Bangladesh through making a desirable balance between population and development in the context of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Interim Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (IPRSP). The following major policy objectives will help address the future challenges: 1. Reduce Total Fertility Rate (TFR) and increase the use of family planning methods among eligible couples through raising...

...Graduate School University of Mindanao Davao City In Partial Fulfillment Of Ed 200 Marichu M. Celestial December , 2014 Chapter 1 PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING Background of the Study The school and community relationship is a decisive factor in obtaining financial support for the public education. While education is widely believed to help people escape from poverty and participate more fully in society and in the market place, governments around the world assume the responsibility for providing and financing education, especially basic education. But this responsibility, according to Gibson and Davies (2008) is a large and complex one for any government to meet adequately, which is why it is very important for government to explore diverse ways of financing and providing educational services. While governments remains the main financier of primary and secondary education, a substantial share of education worldwide is now delivered by private agents (Lewin and Sayed, 2005). But according to Patrinos, Osorio and Guaqueta (2009), public private partnership may face resistance from certain stakeholders. Further, as in any case and circumstance, parents and school involvements are challenged by barriers. According to Chadwick (2004), these barriers include lack of time and/or money, lack of information or training, differences in perceptions in perceptions and values, and issues with school space and facilities. In the Philippines, these diverse ways of financing and providing...

...Introduction The Ministry of Education of Bhutan takes charge in providing children with general education from the pre-primary level to Class 12 through the primary education. It is also responsible for training teachers and for the developing the curriculum and teaching-learning materials used in the classrooms. Primary education is provided free for six years under the goal of universal access to this level of education. Primary schools are inexpensive for parents but some of them cannot send their children to schools because of financial difficulties. To address this problem, the government has established the Bhutan Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper to improve access to and quality of primary education. Since the introduction of planned development in the early 1960s, the education system in Bhutan has grown from a mere 400 students in 11 schools to over 160,000 students in over 550 schools around the country. Education today is playing pivotal role not only in meeting country’s human resource needs but also improves the quality of life, which ultimately contribute to the achievement of GNH. Today, we have realized that the success of the country goes through the education system. Towards this, the education sector in Bhutan aspires to provide an education to every single citizen, such that they become the natural resource of the country, not just in terms of helping to plan and implement the further development of the country, but also by acting as a saleable resource...

...Punjab-Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (P-PRSP) Munib ur Rehman OCTOBER, 2003 Preface Pakistan has always been plagued with the scourge of poverty. This situation has worsened during the last decade. Poverty deprives people of the assets they are entitled to. It takes away their rights and liberties and it results in a loss of dignity. Now, despite many gains at the macro level and a generally healthy economic outlook, poverty still persists and continues to increase. This trend needs to be reversed. Fight against poverty has always remained on the agenda of the government. There has been a significant focus on poverty reduction through various development schemes and projects. Government of Punjab did not have a special poverty reduction programme as such in the past. This meant that while resources were spent on various poverty alleviation schemes and projects, there was no significant attention paid to the poor as the focal point in such programme. Consequentially we neither had a proper data base on poverty nor were any assessments made of the projects and Programmes vis-à-vis their impact on the lives of the poor. The present Punjab Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper [P-PRSP] is an effort to streamline the system and to ensure that poverty and the poor are specially targeted for various interventions. Similarly, review and monitoring is being ensured with a view to creating a feedback loop, allowing us to improve programmes as they are implemented...

...Dr. David Tataw Healthcare Economics February 2, 2015 The economics of health care field studies demand and supply of health care resources, that is, allocation of the resources, within a given health care system. The health care system is defined as “the organizational arrangements and processes through which a society makes choices concerning the production, consumption, and distribution of health care services.”6 Because health care resources are limited, each society has to make decisions in terms of the distribution, consumption, and production of these services. A key factor that shapes the delivery of health care in any health care system is the evolving system for financing and reimbursement for health care services. The types of services delivered and the organizational approaches to delivering services are heavily influenced by how health care is paid for. In this paper I will discuss some values of healthcare professionals understand the discipline of health economics, the importance of considering the complex nature of health and healthcare when examining the economic principles, and the main potential benefits of learning about health economics. In the health care market, patients or consumers, health care providers or producers, and third-party payers are three major players. According to the principles of economic theory, consumers or patients on the demand side seek to maximize their utility or satisfaction, which is largely determined by...

...The National Service Training Program The National Service Training Program was also known as “An Act Establishing the National Service Training Program (NSTP) for Tertiary Level Students, Amending for the Purpose Republic Act No. 7077 and Presidential Decree no. 1706, and for other Purposes” or Republic Act No. 9163. It was signed into law in January 23, 2002 amidst the various calls of dissenting sectors for its abolition or reform. It invoked the constitutional provision regarding the “duty of the state to serve and protect its citizens,” specifically Article II (Declaration of Principles and State Policies), Section 2, which states that “The prime duty of the government is to serve and protect the people. The government may call upon the people to defend the state, and in fulfillment thereof, all citizens may be required under conditions provided by law, to render personal military or civil service” (italics supplied). This is the same principle that created and sustained the Reserve Officers Training Corps. The primary objective of the NSTP law is to promote the role of the youth in nation-building. As such, it aims to encourage the youth to become civic and/or military leaders and volunteers whom could be called upon by the nation in cases their services are needed. Compared with the ROTC which specializes in military training, and the E-ROTC which granted three options for students yet was limited in implementation, the NSTP law ensured that the three components...
