E N D
Overview • MKUKUTA Cluster II – Broad Outcomes • Improved quality of life and social well being with particular focus on the poorest and most vulnerable groups • Reduced inequalities (including survival, health and education) across geographical areas, income, gender)
The presentation • Organized around five goals • A review of progress on key MKUKUTA indicators under each goal
Goal 1 • Equitable access to quality primary and secondary education for boys and girls, universal literacy among men and women and expansion of higher, technical and vocational training • Positive trends recorded - e.g Enrolment in pre-primary, secondary and tertiary educ. - increased access to poor rural %age of teachers with relevant qualifications, • Challenges remain - e.gRetention, pupil teacher ratio, Students passing PSLE, Students passing Form IV exams, transition from Std VII to Form I • Technical and vocational training
Percentage of primary school teachers with relevant qualification, 2004 and 2006-2009
Percentage of primary cohort completing Standard VII • 78.5% in 2006 to 62.5% in 2008 • Percentage of children passing PLSE 2001-2008
Goal 2 • Improved Survival, health and well being of all children and women and especially vulnerable groups • Positive trends • Infant and U-5 mortality decline –On track to meet MKUKUTA (2010) and MDG (2015) goals • Nutrition • HIV prevalence rates decline • HIV/AIDS care and treatment support, PMTCT • TB treatment completion • Challenges • Neonatal mortality declined only marginally • vaccination (DPTHB) • Maternal mortality still high - ‘One Plan’

Goal 3 • Increased access to clean affordable and safe water, sanitation, decent shelter and safe ans sustainable environment • Positive trends • Household Latrine coverage (according to the current definition) • Challenges • Downward trend in access to clean and safe water (both urban and rural) • School sanitation • Poor households are paying more than wealthier hhs (as a proportion of total hh expenditure)
Goal 4 & 5 • Adequate social protection and provision of basic needs and services for the vulnerable and needy • Effective systems to ensure universal access to quality and affordable public services • Overall attendance rate for orphans similar to that of other children (87% OVC vs 89% others). More disparity in urban than rural, and in girls than boys. • Only 40% of children with disabilities attend primary school, with half the attendance rate of all children • 25.2% of rural children and 7.7% of urban children engaged in child labour (ILFS, 2006)
conclusions • Positive trends recorded, however, there are significant challenges • Design and pay attention to appropriate qualitative indicators and data (in addition to quantitative) • Monitoring system need to be kept manageable-practical but sufficient for strategic planning and national reporting
