9 1. Background This document presents the first half yearly report and covers the months of July to December The main objectives of the project are to: Reduce psychosocial problems in the community Decrease in diarrheal and WASH related diseases and Increase availability of health services in the community through health camps In the initial phase the following activities like approval letters from government authorities (DPHO, DDC, and DAO) and signing of memorandum of understanding with Social Welfare Council (SWC) for implementing project activities in the five districts, and consultative meetings with government stakeholders were carried out. A baseline survey related to Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) and Tuberculosis (TB) and other communicable diseases was also carried out in order to know the basic health situation in the earthquake affected areas. The various activities of the project like MHPSS, WASH, MHM, Tuberculosis identification and others are targeted for health workers, health facilities operation and management committees, students and community people. During the six months working period, activities related to WASH and MHPSS were conducted, A three days orientation workshop on MHPSS was organized in all the project implemented districts in participation with district level staffs including District Public Health Officer (D(P)HO) and public health and other officers from DPHO including health post in-charge. A one day orientation workshop on MHPSS was also conducted for the Female Community Health Volunteers (FCHVs), HFOMC members and community leaders. Health Facilities Operation and Management Committee members were oriented on WASH for two days and one day orientation was given on WASH for FCHVs and community leaders.\ Health camps with specialists like general physicians, obstetric and gynaecologist, orthopaedicians and a paediatrician were conducted for the community people of the 2 concerned districts. After being checked up free medicines were also given to the sick. Those that needed to be referred were referred to the concerned institutions and suspected cases of TB screening and testing was conducted. Awareness message on health and hygiene were provided to the people who came to the health camps. [6]

Challenges S.N. Challenges Addressed 1. Large sample size in baseline survey caused prolonged data collection in Bhaktapur Municipality which delayed implementation of the planned activities in five districts 2. Unavailability of health workers in their working area caused delay in implementation in programmatic activities. 3.
