3MYANMAR HEALTH ASSISTANT ASSOCIATION
Forward Myanmar Health Assistant Association, itself is systematically organized in a way which can represent the entire Health Assistant community across the country. As the country itself is shifting towards democratic transitions and reforms, MHAA also practices democratic values and principles by having MHAA annual conference where we elect governing and management body of MHAA, respectively. HealthAssistantsarecreatedinawaywhichcanfulfilltheneedofthecountrydatedback to 1953 and it has been more than 60 years of profession. Despite the long period of establishment, the opportunities for long-term development of Health Assistant are still limited. There are three different types of Health Assistants as of Regular Health Assistant (RHA), Condense Health Assistant (CHA) and B.Comm.H (HA) based on the need of different health programs and projects carried out by different governments. Although there are gaps in terms of generation and educational background, we have come together to shape a shared vision of to become a resourceful public health taskforce, to expand access to career development and access to advanced educational opportunities. It is crucial to have a collective voice of all Health Assistants in order to achieve our common vision and missions and likewise the role of MHAA is foundational. Atthemoment,MHAAintownshiplevelisspecificallycomprisedat307townshipsandco-owned by the members who are counting at 5,356 and more from across the country. We have mutual partnership with 6 international donor agencies, 11 partners and implementing public health related projects in 76 townships of 9 regions and states. Currently, we have the full-time staff capacity at 478 and still counting. We took the initial step of developing organizational strategic plan which will pave the way of envisioning and realization of the strategies of achieving our vision and missions. All CEC members, states and regional representatives and other relevant stakeholders have cometogetheranddevelopedthisstrategicplantogetherbyacknowledgingandreflectingthegaps and needs of achieving our long-term vision. This can be seen as a guiding document whichincitesourcorestrategiesandwaysofworkforfiveyears’periodoftime(2019-2023).While developing this strategy, we also tried to compile the invaluable inputs and suggestions of different technical experts and relevant stakeholders as well. It can be said that being able to develop such a shared strategic plan with the participation of different stakeholders is an incredible milestone for Myanmar Health Assistant Association, indeed. Moreover, I personally believe that if we can actually implement this strategic plan, we will be able to achieve our vision as a resourceful taskforce for promoting public health, expanding our career development and as well as accessing advanced educational opportunities. We could also be seen as integral part of contribution to achieve Universal Health Coverage program which is currently undertaking by the Ministry of Health and Sports. Therefore, hereby, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and acknowledgement to those who have contributed their invaluable time and energy to develop this strategic plan (2019-2023) for Myanmar Health Assistant Association.

STRATEGIC PLAN (2019-2023)4
Introduction
Over last two decades, notable progress of health status has achieved in Myanmar in particular maternal and child health. However, there is still a gap in accessing to health care and health status among different State/Region and ethnic groups as well as people living in povertyandconflictaffectedareas1. Life expectancy at birth is 64.7 years2 in Myanmar and Infant Mortality Rate and Maternal Mortality Ratio are 61.8 deaths/1000 live births 3 and 282 maternal deaths/100,000 live births4 respectively. These are still low compared with most of neighboring countries4. With political transition, Myanmar has been increasing its public spendingonhealthwhileefficientandeffectivespendingstillneedstobe.5 On the other hand, In 2016, National Health Plan (2017-2021) has developed with the aim to achieve Universal Health Coverage by 2030. To ensure better alignments among different programs, among various development partners and types of providers, and among different implementing bodies, NHP provides the space for health-focused organizations.
Strategic Position
MHAA has established its branch up to township level, covering almost every township in Myanmar with the involvement of members from a wide variety of ethnic nationals. It members are working in government sectors, mainly in Ministry of Health and Sports, as well as in a large number of NGO, INGOs and some UN organizations in various positions. Theyareprovidinghealthandothersocialservicesinruralareas,conflictaffectedareasanddisaster-prone area frequently together with local MHAA associations. Also, as a local non-government association, it carries out health interventions in around 76 townships with the support of 478 project staffs, in partnership with INGOs, Ethnic Health Organizations (EHO) as well as CBOs and CSOs.
Transition
With the upgrading of Health Assistant Training School to University of Community Health in 1995, the membership composition of the association has changed, with the increasing proportion of bachelor and master degrees in public health graduates. The younger generation expresses more enthusiasm in public health rather than clinical care. Further, overtenyears,itsorganizationalcapacityhasshowedremarkableimprovementinnon-profitsectors, earning the trust of MoHS, partners, communities as well as funding agencies. Recognizing these political, social and health system transitions, constraints and challengesaswellasreflectingourvisiontoserveforthewell-beingofthepeople,the2019-2023 Five-Year Strategic Plan was developed through involvement of representatives from allRegionsandStates.ItisthefirstStrategicPlanofitstypesinhistoryoftheassociation,and MHAA will develop such plan consecutively. It aims to contribute in promoting health status and health equity of the people, realizemembers’ expectations and aspirations onbetter educational and career development, promote organizational development for effective managementofassociationandnon-profitsectors.

History
Myanmar Health Assistant Association was established in 1953 along with the government’s program to have rural health care professionals in the shortage ofmedicalprofessionalsafterexpatriatedoctorsleftthecountry.TheveryfirstRegularHealthAssistant(RHA) training was opened in 1951 and completed trainees were appointed as health assistant at Rural Health Center (RHC) since 1953. These trainings were halted after 13th Batch of RHA training since the replacement of Rural Health Doctor into Regular Health Assistant. In 1984, 14th Regular Health Assistant training were reinitiated again and Health Assistants were trained up to 25th batches. Since 1980 and till date, Multi Public Health Workers (MPHW) including Lady Health Visitor (LHV), Nurses were being trained and become Condensed Health Assistants. In 1995, Health Assistant Training School (Aung San) was upgraded into University of Community Health and Bachelor of Community Health (B.Comm.H) have been awarded. In 2000, The University of Community Health was moved to Magway. In 1997 year, RHA and CHA are promoted into HA-1 who are promoted into THA in 2004 as an estimate.
MHAA was not able to stand and function as a Non-Governmental Organization between the period of 1964-1993. In 1994 under State Law and Order Restoration Council, Myanmar Health Assistant Association was acknowledged and granted as Non-Governmental Organization with reference to registration number 1754 issued by Ministry of Home Affairs. Since then, MHAA has been able to set the following milestones and growing at the organizational level:
