AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Bhutan Health Infrastructure: The 65-bed Gyaltsuen Jetsun Pema Mother and Child Hospital in Monggar is nearing completion, with finishing works and medical equipment installation underway after multiple deadline extensions linked to pandemic disruptions, bridge damage, and landslides. Maternal & Child Health: The hospital’s remaining steps include commissioning heating/cooling, verifying power supply, and completing kitchen, laundry, and signage—aimed at strengthening care for mothers and children in eastern Bhutan. Fertility Care Access: Gelephu Mindfulness City Authority has partnered with Singapore’s KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital to establish Bhutan’s first IVF centre, expanding advanced fertility services beyond current IUI options at JDWNRH. Public Health & Safety: Bhutan’s nationwide student wellbeing surveys show gradual improvements in school climate, but bullying and family-related challenges remain, with MoESD using the Situational Analysis Survey to guide support. Health Systems & Wellness: Bhutan’s PEMA helpline and counselling services report rising demand, with mental health, marital issues, and gender-based violence among the most common concerns, alongside school-based UNICEF HAT programme support. Nutrition & Food Security: Bhutan’s first Food Balance Sheet Report finds cropped area fell about 13% in three years, with cereal and spice declines raising concerns for nutrition and reliance on imports.
