TAGS

The Global Health Advocacy Incubator (GHAI) strengthens its efforts on budget advocacy and domestic sustainability by presenting a key Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) sustainability study for Cambodia, together with Dr. Chan Sophal of the Centre for Policy Studies. The presentation was delivered to senior government officials, including Dr. Top Neth, Director General of the General Department of Identification. It underscored a critical path to self-reliance. Key message included integrating CRVS financing directly into national and sub-national budgets is vital for securing the long-term resilience of the system.

 

Globally, GHAI champions robust fiscal measures to ensure CRVS systems are self-reliant, advocating for innovative co-financing mechanisms and the development of decentralized, integrated system. Achieving this sustainability requires essential collaboration among key ministries.
