dc.description.abstractThe study included 2,819 women participants of reproductive age. Among other intervention strategies, the project improved access to transportation while reducing associated expenses, and created a community health fund, both of which address well known barriers to the use of primary health centres (PHC). The study was designed to determine the effectiveness of various interventions in increasing the uptake of skilled maternal and child care in two rural Local Government Areas (LGA) in Edo State, Nigeria. Removal of out-of-pocket payments, and increased public funding of primary health care need to be considered as matters of equity and social justice.en
