<h3>Suuban Center for Health System Strengthening’s Leadership in Developing the NSOAP 2023-2030.</h3>In 2023, with the support of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, the Suuban Center for Health System Strengthening (CHSS) achieved a landmark success by spearheading the development of the National Surgical, Obstetric, and Anesthesia Plan (NSOAP) 2023-2030 for Somaliland. This strategic initiative marks a pivotal moment in the advancement of healthcare services, specifically targeting improvements in surgical, obstetric, and anesthesia care across the country.Suuban CHSS played a central role in this transformative project by conducting a thorough baseline assessment of the existing healthcare infrastructure. Their team meticulously evaluated 55 health facilities throughout Somalia, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state of surgical, obstetric, and anesthesia services. This assessment was crucial in identifying gaps, understanding existing challenges, and setting a clear foundation for the development of effective, evidence-based strategies.The baseline data generated by Suuban CHSS is not only comprehensive but also serves as a critical reference point for monitoring progress and measuring the impact of future interventions. Our capacity to produce detailed national baseline data underscores our expertise and leadership in health system strengthening.<figure id="figure-mxl51kg0hilzdsoolr"><img id="mxl51kg0hilzdsoolr" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/19q0AlF4GS0lQEEnUAKFpJ7d5Gy8CPXCoRymXATSAWQW5UPASJqeWIQo88uewGBk.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="H.E Liban Youssouf, Vice Minister MOHD, have been Instrumental in the development of NSOAP" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/19q0AlF4GS0lQEEnUAKFpJ7d5Gy8CPXCoRymXATSAWQW5UPASJqeWIQo88uewGBk.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: center center;"><figcaption class="body-normal text-gray-500 mt-2">H.E Liban Youssouf, Vice Minister MOHD, have been Instrumental in the development of NSOAP</figcaption></figure>The NSOAP 2023-2030, officially initiated with the endorsement of the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Health Development (MoHD), reflects Somalia’s commitment to advancing its healthcare services.
