Health System Resilience for Improved SRHR in Bangladesh
Geographic Coverage: Chattogram City Corporation (CCC)
Background and Context :
The Health System Resiliency for Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) Project aims to enhance health system resilience in Chattogram City Corporation, with a particular focus on slum areas. To support this initiative, a comprehensive mapping and listing exercise is required to identify and document key geographic features, health facilities, dwellings, and household information within the slums. This exercise will utilize GPS technology and satellite imagery to create accurate base maps and a GIS database, enabling better planning and delivery of SRHR services.
The primary objectives of this assignment are:
- We develop accurate base maps of slum areas in Chattogram City Corporation using satellite imagery and GPS technology.
- Map and list key features, including administrative boundaries, roads, water bodies, dwellings (baris), landmarks, and health facilities.
- We create a comprehensive GIS database integrating all mapped features and attributes.
- Conduct the household listing in mapped dwellings, capturing household-level and individual member details to inform SRHR interventions.
- Ensure data accuracy through ground-truthing, verification, and iterative corrections.
