Maternal and neonatal care

Maternal health services at MTC expanded notably between 2023 and 2024. Antenatal consultations grew from 9,733 in 2023 to 11,286 in 2024, reflecting the rising number of displaced women fleeing conflict in Burma. Family planning consultations also increased from 4,005 to 4,853, with most clients continuing to prefer injectable contraceptives, although efforts to promote long-acting methods are ongoing.

In terms of deliveries, admissions rose from 1,689 in 2023 to 1,889 in 2024, with live births at MTC increasing accordingly.

Reproductive health services continued to account for 40% of total admissions, with numbers rising from 2,907 to 3,508. Referrals of women with obstetric complications to MSGH climbed by 56%, a result of better risk detection and greater access to health insurance.

CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT CENTER

The influx of refugees has intensified pressure on education services with many migrant learning centers (MLCs) struggling to accommodate growing student numbers. Rising demand, funding constraints, and limited infrastructure have placed significant strain on MTC and its partners as they work to maintain essential education services for displaced and migrant children.

CDC stands out as a leading MLC, offering education from nursery to Grade 12, including the accredited education programs – Non-Formal Education (NFE) and General Education Development (GED) to over 1,000 students along the Thai-Myanmar border.
