Aquatic agricultural systems (AAS) are places where farming and fishing in freshwater and/or ÿcoastal ecosystems contribute significantly to household income and food security. Globally, the ÿlivelihoods of many poor and vulnerable people are dependent on these systems. In recognition ÿof the importance of AAS, the CGIAR Research Program (CRP) is undertaking a new generation ÿof global agricultural research programs on key issues affecting global food security and rural ÿdevelopment. The overall goal of the research program is to improve the well-being of people ÿdependent on these systems. Solomon Islands is one of five priority countries in the AAS program, ÿled by WorldFish. In Solomon Islands, the AAS program operates in the Malaita Hub (Malaita ÿProvince) and the Western Hub (Western Province). This program and its scoping activities are ÿsummarized in this report.ÿ

This report was developed to review the Health Workforce Enhancement Plan 2013-2016 (HWEP), which had been extended until 2019, and to function as a human resources for health (HRH) situational analysis in preparation for the development of a national HRH strategic plan. The HWEP was developed as a response to Papua New Guinea Health Workforce Crisis: A Call to Action, a 2011 World Bank report that recommended the country adopt a strategy to increase pre-service and in-service training, staff for support services, and quality-enhancing non-salary budget expenditures, known in the report as Scenario 5. A recommended training schedule up to 2030 has also been developed to guide the implementation of such a strategy.

Target 5A of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) was to reduce maternal deaths by 75% between 1990 and 2015. The Maternal Mortality Estimation Inter-Agency Group comprising the World Health Organization (WHO) the United Nations Children?s Fund (UNICEF) the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) the World Bank Group and the United Nations Population Division assessed the 95 countries with an MMR higher than 100 in 1990. The report notes Cambodia the Lao People?s Democratic Republic and Mongolia have achieved this target in the Western Pacific Region. However maternal mortality remains higher than the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target in five countries in the Region. WHO has developed evidence-based maternal health recommendations for reducing maternal mortality and morbidity. This review compares national guidelines and protocols implementation and health system standards to WHO recommendations for eight countries that account for 96% of maternal deaths in the Western Pacific Region.
