PHJ Fiscal Year 2022 Activity and Financial Report(July 1, 2021~June 30, 2022) and Fiscal Year 2023
Project Plan (July 1, 2022~ June 30, 2023)
Reviewing Fiscal Year (FY) 2022
By KAMIYA Youhei, Chairperson of the Board of Directors
In January 2022, People’s Hope Japan (hereinafter PHJ) celebrated its
25th anniversary, an achievement that would not have been possible
without the continued support and cooperation of our individual and corporate supporters andthe sincere efforts of all PHJ staff members.
I am pleased to report that, despite the COVID-19 pandemic and other global concerns, PHJ
has overcome every challenge before it and has succeeded in achieving nearly all of its
objectives for fiscal year (FY) 2022. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone
for their support.
Looking ahead to our next 25 years, all of us here at PHJ are determined to work as one
team. As we take our first steps in this journey, I trust that we will enjoy your continued
cooperation and support.

1. Outline
1.1 PHJ’s International Operations and SDGs
Since its foundation, PHJ has been engaged in international cooperation and disaster relief activities
in the health and medical fields. Since 2003, PHJ has focused its activities on maternal and childhealth and nutrition improvement projects. PHJ’s projects contribute toward the achievement of goal
3 (good health and well-being for all persons) of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), whichwere unanimously adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015.
Specifically, based on the needs of the target areas, PHJ implements projects aiming at target 3.1(reducing maternal mortality), target 3.2 (reducing newborn and under five mortality), and target 3.8(realizing universal health coverage). (See the attached diagram on pages 14 and 15.)

In addition, through the on-site lectures and office visits that it conducts as a public relations activity,
PHJ promotes a deeper awareness of global issues and NGOs, and positions this as an opportunity
to develop the next generation of individuals who will be responsible for international cooperation andglobal health. This program targets elementary, middle, and high school students, as well as universityand vocational school students, to give them a better understanding of the global health and medical
issues that PHJ is working to address and familiarize them with grassroots-level international
cooperation and global development goals.
PHJ aims to realize the happiness that comes about when a person in need receives support, thehappiness that is the result of having directly provided support to someone in need, and the happinessthat is the outcome of having served as an intermediary (our role at PHJ) in the provision of support
to people who are in need. We call this the "Happy-Happy Concept," and it is consistent with thefundamental ethos of the SDGs: “Leave No One Behind.” Not only those who are in need, but also
those who provide support can work together to achieve mutual happiness, be healthy, and havehope.

1.2 Project Contents and Progress
In FY2022, PHJ engaged in the following health, medical, and disaster relief projects:(1) In Cambodia, PHJ continued implementation of a project to strengthen community care and the
support network for children in the Stoung Trang Operational Health District (OD) of Kampong Cham
Province.
(2) In Myanmar, PHJ continued implementation of a project for supporting health systemstrengthening for maternal and newborn health improvement in Lewe Township, Nay Pyi Taw Union
Territory.
(3) In Japan, a psychosomatic counselling project in Minami Soma City, Fukushima Prefecture wascompleted as planned in December 2021.
In Cambodia, as mentioned above, PHJ continued its implementation of a project to strengthencommunity care and the support network for children (project period from October 2018 to January2023) in the Stoung Trang OD of Kampong Cham Province. In the first year, the project was selffunded, and since October 2019 the project has been funded through the Grant Assistance forJapanese NGO Projects of the Japan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The second year of the project wascompleted on January 12, 2022, as originally planned. The third year began on January 19, 2022,
and the project is now in its final stage. In addition, PHJ designed a new project to be implemented

at a new project site in Siem Reap Province. PHJ applied for a grant to be provided within theframework of the JICA Partnership Program, and this has been provisionally approved. PHJ plans tostart the new project at the new project site in April 2023. The contract negotiation is underway.
In Myanmar, PHJ is implementing the aforementioned project for supporting health systemstrengthening for maternal and newborn health improvement (December 2020 to September 2024)
in Lewe Township, Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory. In March 2021, the project received funding throughthe Grant Assistance for Japanese NGO Projects of the Japan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The grant
was expected to cover a one-year period; however, as the unstable situation in the country and
COVID-19 (see below) significantly limited PHJ’s activities, an application was submitted to MOFA foran extension. This application was approved and the period covered by the grant was extended until
December 2022. While sharing information on the local security situation, infectious disease control,
and the progress of activities with the Non-Governmental Organizations Cooperation Division of the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Japanese Embassy in Myanmar, PHJ will continue to implement
this project.
The Minamisoma psychosomatic counselling project ran from January 2019 to December 2021, andin this the Musubino-kai medical corporation played a central role. The project made use of an
examination room at the Hori Mental Clinic in Minamisoma City. During the second half of the project,which began in July 2020, Dr. HORI, the clinical psychologist Dr. SAKAKIBARA, and Dr. TAKAHASHI
provided cognitive behavioral therapy, mental health counseling, and psychological testing. As
planned, the three-year project was completed in December 2021, and the patients and their families
expressed their gratitude.

1.3 Communications and Fundraising
PHJ celebrated its 25th anniversary in January 2022. To commemorate theoccasion, the Communications Department created an anniversary logo andused it on the web and in newsletters and other publications.
In addition, it launched a digital fundraising project and is preparing to carryout crowdfunding for commemorative events later this year (2022). As planned,
the 2021 Annual Report and two newsletters were published and distributed to regular members,
supporting members, related organizations, and other related parties. For our 2022 calendar, theCommunications Department created wall and tabletop versions of an “Asian Fairy Tale Calendar "featuring scenes from fairy tales drawn by children in Cambodia and Musashino City, and distributedthis as a token of appreciation to donors.

As a COVID-19 preventive measure, the study tour for Saitama University students and donors thatwas planned in FY2022 was conducted online. Based on a proposal made by the Steering Committee
meeting in November 2021, the COVID-related temporary suspension of intern admissions by PHJ
was rescinded in February 2022.
In cooperation with Dot-JP, a designated nonprofit organization, PHJ resumed the acceptance ofinterns who wished to make the most of long vacation periods. By encouraging them to show initiativein activities such as planning, preparing, coordinating, and implementing participatory learning events,
and by uniting the organization through the cooperation of directors and steering committee members,
it was a "win-win-win" initiative for interns, participants, and PHJ.
The Communications Department maintained the PHJ website and ensured that all necessary
information is disclosed in accordance with the NPO Act. Specifically, as data shows that smartphones
account for nearly 70% of web traffic in Japan, the PHJ website has been optimized for use bysmartphones.
As PHJ’s current revenue from corporate and individual support membership fees continues to decline,
it is necessary to make changes to existing initiatives, implement new membership retention initiatives
that target corporate and individual members, and implement new fund-raising activities other thanthose that depend on membership fees. The large number of corporate supporting members is one
of PHJ's major strengths (11th in Japan as of 2016). PHJ has great potential for further support andcooperation from its corporate supporters.
The Communications Department, Fundraising Department, Disaster Relief Department, Cambodia
and Myanmar Offices, and Program Support Department cooperated effectively to carry out acampaign for the donation of discarded postcards, which was launched on a trial basis in May 2021
and was conducted from December 2021 to March 2022. We received nearly 90 donations of
discarded postcards, stamps, gift certificates, book coupons, and telephone cards. Through thiscampaign, we learned valuable lessons that will guide our efforts and improve efficiency in the future.
In response to the declaration of a state of emergency and other priority measures to prevent the
spread of COVID-19 across Japan, PHJ proactively used IT tools to conduct online meetings withcorporate members such as Ono Pharmaceutical, Sumitomo Pharma, and the Narita Cosmopolitan
Rotary Club. We maintained and strengthened our relationships with corporate supporting members
and continued to receive donations from companies and organizations.

1.4 Impact of COVID-19
PHJ's activities continued to be affected by COVID-19 throughout FY 2022. Cambodia experienced
a rapid spread of COVID-19 infections from April to October 2021. The spread of infections wascontrolled to some degree in Cambodia and thus reduced towards the end of 2021. However, due tothe emergence of a variant (Omicron) of the virus that causes COVID-19, the number of people whocame down with the disease began to go up again, mainly in February and March of 2022. The
government has, therefore, been actively conducting a national booster vaccine campaign, and alarge number of healthcare professionals have been engaged in this.
The spread of infections has affected to a great extent the progress of the project. In Kampong Cham
Province, site of the PHJ project, the number of patients visiting health centers (HC) has decreased.
Some activities, such as health volunteer meetings, have been canceled or postponed. Due to the
spread of infections, participants in activities such as training sessions are now required to show theirvaccination cards as well as proof of their negative status by showing the result of an antigen test.
Since May 2022, the number of infected people has been decreasing, and activities have been
conducted with no major difficulties.
Myanmar saw its highest peak (2nd wave) between July and September 2021, with approximately
6,000 new confirmed cases per day. As a result, in Nay Pyi Taw, where the PHJ project is being
conducted, stores other than selling food and medical supplies were closed, and this has had asignificant impact on the lives of the general public. On July 7, 2021, a stay-at-home order was issued
by the Ministry of Health, and the four PHJ local staff members were also required to work from home.
Until the order was lifted on December 1, no training sessions or meetings could be held. In February2022, the Omicron variant spread all over the country (3rd wave), but this did not reach the level of the
2nd wave. On March 15, the limit on the number of people allowed to gather in one place was raised
from 200 to 400. The number of infected people has stayed low since April, and the situation isstabilizing.
In the Minamisoma psychosomatic counselling project, remote counseling was introduced to reduce
face-to-face contact. The number of one-hour sessions steadily increased.
In Tokyo, the Omicron variant was rampant from January to February 2022, and the number of
infections increased rapidly. At the Tokyo Head Office, we kept the attendance rate at work to lessthan 30%, and took measures such as the ventilation of work spaces, hand sanitization, wearing ofmasks, and prohibition of face-to-face seating. However, as community transmission was spreading,
PHJ employees were being infected through contact with others in their own households. Those who
were infected were asked to stay home for 10 days.

1.5 Financial Report
Total revenues excluding goods in kind were 68.75 million yen (initial budget 59.13 million yen), andtotal expenditures came to 67.16 million yen (initial budget 93.95 million yen), resulting in a profit of
1.59 million yen. (Initially, a deficit of 34.82 million had been projected.) Accordingly, the net profit
exceeded projections by 36.4 million yen, and net assets of 108.35 million yen were carried forward
to the next fiscal year.
Under the NGO financial standards, PHJ is required to report the amount of donations for specificpurposes that are left over for the next fiscal year and included in the forwarded net assets. Thatamount came to 58.04 million yen, and mainly consisted of the balance of the MOFA grants for
Cambodia and Myanmar. This balance will decrease as the projects proceed, and will be eliminatedupon their completion. PHJ’s true financial capabilities can best be understood by referring to the
donations not designated for specific purposes that are carried forwarded to the next fiscal year. Thiscan be calculated by simply deducting the balance of the donations designated for specific purposes
from the net assets carried forward. This amount at the end of FY2022 came to 50.3 million yen,which is up 1.9 million yen from the previous fiscal year.

There are some reasons why this increase only came to 1.9 million yen. One reason is that, as of theend of June 2022, Myanmar activity expenses amounting to 49,663 US dollars (from March 2021 to
May 2022) were paid in advance using PHJ’s own funds, i.e. “net assets carried forward which are
not designated for specific purposes,” and settlement will be made using the “net assets carriedforward which are designated for specific purposes.” Another reason is that a settlement of 3.67 million
yen for Myanmar activity expenses by the Tokyo Head Office was postponed to FY 2023. By
proceeding with these two settlements, approximately 10 million yen will be transferred from “netassets carried forward which are designated for specific purposes” to “net assets carried forwardwhich are not designated for specific purposes.” As a result, the actual amount of the “net assets
carried forward which are not designated for specific purposes” is estimated to be approximately 60
million yen, which indicates that financial soundness has been maintained.
On the other hand, we have been experiencing a long-term decline in the number of corporate

and individual memberships. COVID-related restrictions since March 2020 have had a significant
impact on member and donor companies, resulting in the suspension and reduction of membershipfees. However, we have factored this into our budget for FY 2022 and, with the exception of general
donations, the financial results are almost in line with the budget. General donations increased byapproximately 3 million yen against the budget, and the reason for this is explained as follows:
Although PHJ has received a large amount of support from Yokogawa Electric Corporation, which isone of the founders of PHJ, the rules on the provision of support to PHJ have been revised to further
clarify support costs. Specifically, in April 2022, Yokogawa changed its rule concerning the payment
for labor performed by employees that it has seconded to PHJ. The new rule requires PHJ to pay thelabor costs of Yokogawa secondees and to then receive a donation from Yokogawa that compensates
for this payment. As a result, both administrative expenses and general donations have increased.

2. Support Programs
2.1 Cambodia Program(1) Project to Strengthen Community Care and Support Network forChildren in Kampong Cham ProvinceThis three-year MOFA grant project commenced in October 2019 with the support of donor companies.
It has its origins in a Healthy Child Growth Pilot Program, which commenced in November 2018. In
January 2022, PHJ completed the second-year activities, which were mainly funded by the MOFA
grant, and started the third year in January 2022. In FY2022, PHJ implemented the project with afocus on the following five approaches.
●Support of health center infrastructure(MOFA grant activities)
In cooperation with the OD, PHJ produced an inventory list for the target HCs (Peam Kohsna, Oun
Mlou, Areak Thnot, and Khop Tangoun) to regularly check their inventories: PHJ confirmed that each
HC maintains appropriate inventories of child health care medical equipment and supplies.
(Self-funded activities)
Eleven water dispensers were donated to eight non-target HCs in Stoung Trang OD in March 2022,
for the purpose of providing safe drinking water to both health staff and patients. (Water dispensers

had been already donated to the four target HCs in FY 2021.)●Support of Technical Training for HC Staff(MOFA grant activities and self-funded activities)
At the four target HCs, PHJ monitored the monthly HC staff meetings. HC staff meetings provide animportant opportunity for the HC staff and OD staff to share information, discuss any duty-related
issues and their solutions, and receive updated information on COVID-19 infection prevention
measures, including COVID-19 vaccination campaign schedules.
The OD staff supervised the integrated management of childhood illnesses (IMCI), growth monitoringand promotion (GMP), and postnatal care (PNC) at all four target HCs as shown on the photo below.
In addition, the OD staff also supervised IMCI, GMP, and PNC at eight non-target HCs in November
2021 and February 2022.
In December 2021, a Pediatric Coordinator Alliance Team (PCAT) Meeting (with the attendance of all
12 HCs) was held in the OD office. Several refresher training sessions were held in the latter part of
FY 2022: IMCI refresher training in January 2022, GMP refresher training in March 2022, and SAMNutrition refresher training in May 2022. All 12 HCs were invited to participate in the training sessions.

●Strengthening of Child Care Network in the Community(MOFA grant activities and self-funded activities)
PHJ monitored bi-monthly meetings for the Health Center Management Committee and healthvolunteers (VHSG) and organized quarterly meetings for community care workers for mothers andnewborns (CCMNs). Some meetings were postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak. In addition, in
December 2021, joint meetings of VHSG and CCMNs were held at the four HCs. The meetings werea valuable opportunity for the sharing of information on health issues and measures that needed tobe addressed in the community, and served to improve cooperation between the HCs and volunteers.
They also confirmed that an all-out effort must be made to establish mechanisms for emergency
referral and the sharing of health information.

●Support of Child Health Education in the Community(MOFA grant activities and self-funded activities)
Hygiene campaigns for purposes including preventing COVID-19 infections were conducted in PeamKohsna and in Oun Mlou in August 2021. In September and October 2021, training sessions for
VHSGs and CCMNs were conducted at the four HCs, covering topics such as child nutrition and
COVID-19 infection prevention. Refresher training for the volunteers was conducted in April and May
2022. Subsequently, in November and December 2021, health education and training in the
preparation of food for children under the age of 2 was conducted in all 34 target villages. A second
round of health education was undertaken in the 34 target villages in May and June 2022. In April
2022, PHJ provided volunteers with 129 backpacks for use in community health education activities.
PHJ also continued to monitor home visits conducted by CCMNs as shown on the following photos.

●Strengthening of Cooperation with OD(MOFA grant activities and self-funded activities)
In January 2022, PHJ held a monitoring evaluation workshop with the OD staff members upon thecompletion of the second year of the project. The OD chief and other OD staff as well as PHJ staff
attended the meeting. Based on collected project indicator data, they shared the results and outcomesof activities. They also confirmed the action plan for the third year.

(2) COVID-19 Outbreak Emergency Support(Self-funded activities)
700 COVID-19 rapid diagnostic kits (rapid test) were donated to the referral hospital and the 12 HCsof Stoung Trang OD. Rapid tests were initially supplied by the Ministry of Health to hospitals and HCs
and were mainly used for pregnant women and suspected patients. Due to the discontinuation of the
supply of rapid tests from the Ministry of Health, the OD promptly requested assistance from PHJ.
PHJ responded swiftly and provided an adequate number of rapid test kits.

2.2 Myanmar Program(1) Project for Supporting Health System Strengthening for Maternal andNewborn Health Improvement in Lewe Township, Nay Pyi Taw Union
Territory.
The project started in December 2020 as a 3-year project after the conclusion of an MOU with the
Ministry of Health and Sport (November 2020) and the renewal of the registration of the international
NGO (December 2020). Using grant assistance for Japanese NGO Projects from MOFA and funds
from donor companies, PHJ has been engaged in this project to comprehensively strengthen healthsystems through three initiatives that are described below. Also, since April 2020, all work on projects
has been conducted remotely by Japanese expatriates who have been evacuated to Japan. In March
2021, the project manager resigned, and in June, the country director resigned. From July 2021 to
February 2022, the manager of the Program Support Department at the Tokyo Headquarters served
as the acting director, and since March 2022, the General Manager of the Program Support
Department has been serving as the acting project manager. The first year of the project was planned
to be completed on March 30, 2022. However, due to the sudden change in the domestic situationand the impact of COVID-19, the project period was extended for nine months, to December 29, 2022.
●Rolling-out of Proven Effective Activities to Other Townships within Nay Pyi Taw(MOFA grant activities)
Due to changes in the domestic situation in Myanmar since February 1, 2021, it is difficult tocoordinate between the Ministry of Health and the Nay Pyi Taw Department of Public Health, so theplanned activities have been suspended. PHJ is going to implement these activities as soon as thissituation is resolved.
●Promoting Partnerships among Township Medical Office, Medical Staff, and Community(MOFA grant activities)
In order to explain the objectives and activities of this project, advocacy meetings were held from
December 2021 to March 2022 in 19 villages, where matters pertaining to public safety, the loweringof risk for COVID-19 infection, and cooperation with local communities were confirmed. In February2022, staff members from the Nay Pyi Taw Department of Public Health, Lewe Township Medical
Office, and Lewe Township Administrative Office participated in a project workshop in which they gave
an overview of the project, shared information on its progress, and confirmed plans for future activities.
Also, starting in the villages where the MCH promoters had initiated their activities, midwives, auxiliary
midwives, and the MCH promoters conducted regular meetings. In addition, the Lewe Township
Medical Office began preparation for the provision of personal computers and printers for the purposeof building up the infrastructure for the Health Management Information System (HMIS). Although theunit prices have increased significantly since the plan was first made (September 2020), a total of 12
sets of computers and printers will be provided as planned to the Lewe Township Medical Office, theMaternal and Child Health Division, and the Rural Health Centers (to be provided in July 2022).
●Improving Health of Mothers and Newborns by Increasing Access to Health Services(MOFA grant activities and self-funded activities)
In September 2021, 90 “clean delivery kits”, 270 packets of gauze, and 270 pairs of disposable gloves
were provided to 5 auxiliary midwives whom PHJ couldn’t contact at the time when supplies were first
distributed (May 2021), in order to support safe delivery at home. In addition, with the extension of
the project duration, PHJ provided additional medical supplies to 18 auxiliary midwives in Lewe
Township in May 2022 (a 5 month supply of 250 “clean delivery kits”, 750 packets of gauze, and 750
pairs of gloves). From December 2021 to March 2022, meetings were held for midwives, auxiliary
midwives, and MCH promoter candidates in order to promote closer cooperation. The meetings wereconducted in 19 villages, where matters pertaining to public safety, the lowering of risk for COVID-19
infection, and cooperation with local communities were confirmed. In March and May 2022, we
conducted training sessions for 85 MCH promoters in 18 villages. After receiving this training, theMCH promoters began their activities, including the collection of information on pregnant women andchildren under 5 years old, home visits, support for midwives for the promotion of vaccinations, andpreparation of reports in each of the 18 villages, in cooperation with midwives and auxiliary midwives.
In cooperation with the Lewe Township Health Department, PHJ also began preparations to conduct
refresher training sessions for 47 auxiliary midwives (scheduled for July 2022).

(2) COVID-19 Outbreak Emergency Support(Self-funded activities)
In October 2021, PHJ provided 167 “clean delivery kits”, 501 packets of gauze, and 501 pairs ofdisposable gloves (a 9 month supply) to 24 auxiliary midwives working in Tatkon Township, the former
project site, to support safe delivery at home. In May 2022, PHJ provided additional materials (a 5month supply of 140 “clean delivery kits”, 420 packets of gauze, and 420 pairs of disposable gloves)to 12 auxiliary midwives. In addition, COVID-19 infection prevention supplies were provided to two
community voluntary organizations in Lewe Township that are engaged in transporting COVID-19
patients and their close contacts. A total of 1,120 non-woven masks and 1,120 pairs of disposable
gloves were provided.

2.3 East Japan Disaster Reconstruction Program(Self-funded activities)
Following the conclusion in 2017 of the provision of reconstruction support to medical institutions in
Miyagi Prefecture (Kesennuma City, Ishinomaki City, and Tagajo City), which started as a support
project for the Great East Japan Earthquake, PHJ decided to launch the three-year Minamisoma

psychosomatic counselling support project (from January 2019 to December 2021) in order to help
people in the Minamisoma area who were still suffering from mental distress due to the nuclear power
plant accident and the tsunami. PHJ and the Musubino-kai medical association, which manages the“Hori Mental Clinic,” prepared a memorandum on the project.
In the first year, free psychological tests were provided by the clinical psychologist Dr.TAKAHASHI
and counseling was provided by the clinical psychologist Dr. YONEKURA, using a room that was
being rented from the Hori Mental Clinic. PHJ mainly provided support by covering the personnel
costs for these psychologists. The on-site report showed that the counseling for patients who had
experienced trauma during the earthquake or in other situations improved their mental health. It
helped them work through issues that had been holding them back and enabled them to enjoy theirlives more.
In the second year, the free mental health counseling grew in popularity and the number of patients
increased, making it difficult to get an appointment. Dr. HORI and the clinical psychologist Dr.
YONEKURA had differing views on how to proceed and,following discussions between Dr. HORI and PHJ, Dr.
YONEKURA decided to withdraw from the project andthe clinical psychologist Dr. SAKAKIBARA took over Dr.
YONEKURA’s position. At the same time, due to theoutbreak of COVID-19 in Fukushima Prefecture, clinics
were closed in April and May 2020. In June, an online
medical care system was introduced and mental healthcounseling was resumed, both in person and online, as
shown on the left photo.
A review of the first 18 months of the project found that it would be impossible to establish an
independent counseling center within 3 years, which was the original plan, but it was confirmed thatthe project activities would continue until the project was scheduled to come to an end in December
2021. As the COVID-19 pandemic grew ever more severe, Dr. SAKAKIBARA began offeringcounseling online from Tokyo while fully utilizing the online medical care system, and the clinicalpsychologist Dr. TAKAHASHI continued with psychological testing. In the latter half of the project (fromJuly 2020), Dr. HORI started offering mental health counseling (cognitive behavioral therapy).
In the final year of the three-year project, both online and face-to-face counseling were provided andpreventative measures against COVID-19 were taken. Dr. HORI's cognitive-behavioral therapy waseffective in meeting patient needs, and the number of patients and counselling sessions increased
steadily. A large amount of data was gathered through these activities, and Dr. HORI shared this with

academic associations and professional organizations. In conjunction with the regular board meetingthat was held in August 2021, Dr. HORI released an online project report, in which he wrote, "PHJ’s
support will end in December, and the scale of the project will be reduced. However, based on thethree years of valuable experience, I would like through the Hori Mental clinic to continue providing
mental healthcare services that meet the needs of the local community."

Summary of FY2023 Project Plan
1. Overview
PHJ continues to implement international cooperation projects and contribute to theachievement of SDGs, which were adopted by the United Nations in 2015. The continuationof these activities is highly dependent on adequate funding, quality human resources, andeffective project planning. Accordingly, PHJ has formulated a midterm plan that sets out thedirection it will take to ensure stability in fundraising, staff recruitment and training,
implementation of existing projects, and planning of new projects.
In Cambodia, PHJ will soon complete the third year of the Project to Strengthen Community
Care and the Support Network for Children in Kampong Cham Province (project period from
October 2018 to January 2023), with funding provided by an ODA grant from the Ministry ofForeign Affairs (MOFA) of the Government of Japan. PHJ plans to move its office to Siem
Reap Province in April 2023 to oversee implementation of the JICA Partnership Program on
Supporting Health System Strengthening for Safe Pregnancy and Childbirth (planned project
period from April 2023 to March 2026).
Regarding the Myanmar program, PHJ extended the first year of the MOFA project for
Supporting Health System Strengthening for Maternal and Newborn Health Improvement in
Lewe Township, Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory (planned project period from December 2020 to
September 2024) to December 2022. The second year will be from January to December of2023. The project environment is gradually improving but the country remains unstable. While
taking into consideration the security situation and putting the highest priority on the safety of
the Myanmar staff, PHJ will seek whenever possible to carry out all necessary activities.
Regarding the planned project activities that are funded by a MOFA grant, PHJ will maintainclose communications with counterparts in Myanmar and the staff at the Myanmar Office.
PHJ also will continue to consult with the MOFA and the Japanese Embassy in Myanmar.
For FY2023, we project revenues of 66.83 million yen, expenditures of 90.31 million yen, anda deficit of 23.48 million yen. The reason for the deficit is the return of over 16 million yen in
unspent MOFA grant money and the recruitment of new staff members. Nevertheless, this is
not expected to have a major impact on PHJ’s financial condition, and the net assets carriedforwarded to the next fiscal year will amount to 84.87 million yen.
2-1. Cambodia Program2-1-1. Project to Strengthen Community Care and Support Network for Children in
Kampong Cham Province(MOFA grant-funded and self-funded activities)
PHJ will complete the third year of this MOFA grant project in January 2023. To produce
positive outcomes and ensure that these activities continue after the project draws to aclose, PHJ will focus on the following five approaches in its implementation of thisproject:1) supporting HC facilities, 2) enhancing the skills and knowledge of HC staff
members, 3) strengthening the child care community network, 4) providing local
residents with health education, and 5) strengthening cooperation with the OD
administration.
 Support of HC infrastructure
Using inventory lists, PHJ will continue to monitor the availability of child health careequipment at the four HCs (Khpop Tagnuon, Peam Kohsna, Areak Thnot, and Oun
Mlou). PHJ will also inspect the sanitary conditions and medical equipment at the HCs
by using check lists .
 Support of Technical Training for HC Staff
Following up on its provision last fiscal year of IMCI, GMP, and SAM-Nutrition training
to the HC staff of Stoun Trang OD, PHJ will assist in the supervision of GMP, IMCI, andPNC training of staff members at the target HCs in order to ensure the retention andimprovement of child care skills and knowledge. Moreover, to ensure effective HC
management and the provision of quality health services, PHJ will organize PCAT
meetings and continue monitoring HC staff meetings.
 Strengthening of Child Care Network in the Community
PHJ will continue to organize and monitor VHSG and CCMN meetings that will give
volunteers the opportunity to share information and discuss solutions to healthproblems in the community. Furthermore, PHJ will follow up on the use of theemergency referral manual for children who need immediate treatment. This manualwas drafted in cooperation with the OD.
 Improvement of Child Care in the Community
PHJ will organize health education in the 34 targeted villages. This will be provided by
the VHSGs and CCMNs who underwent training last fiscal year. The subjects will
include hygiene, sanitation, COVID-19 preventive measures, and child nutrition. The
health education will also include demonstrations of the preparation of nutritious foodfor children under the age of two.
After the completion of the health education in the villages, PHJ will test mothers andcare-takers to assess their level of understanding about child health and nutrition.
 Cooperation with the OD Office
To strengthen the partnership with the OD that is responsible for the local healthadministration, PHJ will organize a Monitoring and Evaluation Workshop (M&E
Workshop) twice a year; the first workshop is to be held in July 2022 (in the third yearof the MOFA grant project) and the second one is to be held in January 2023 (at thecompletion of the MOFA grant project.) These workshops provide opportunities forpartners and PHJ to share project outcomes and results and discuss activity-related
problems and solutions. The M&E workshops are essential to enhance theeffectiveness of local health care services. Moreover, PHJ will organize an evaluation
seminar prior to the completion of the project. PHJ will also create a booklet that covers
the activities, processes, outcomes, and lessons learned from this project, for
distribution to partners and the other OD chiefs in Kampong Cham Province.
Through the above-mentioned five approaches, PHJ will work closely with the OD, HCs,
VHSGs, and CCMNs to implement effective community health care education, andthereby enhance the health knowledge of community members and build confidence intheir ability to maintain good health.
2-2-1 Project for Supporting Health System Strengthening for Maternal and Newborn
Health Improvement in Lewe Township, Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory( MOFA grant-funded and self-funded activities)
While the project covers the entire township, PHJ will focus on those areas that have poor
access to health services. The aim is to improve MCH by strengthening the local healthsystem to provide better access, based on practical requirements. Also, PHJ will
cooperate with the Lewe Township Medical Office to roll out activities that have proveneffective in other areas within the Union Territory.
The first year period under the MOFA grant was extended for nine (9) months, toDecember 29, 2022. The second year is planned to commence in January 2023.
The project has three initiatives. The first one is “to spill-over the effects of achievementsof this project to other areas.” The second initiative is “to promote a partnership between

the Township Medical Office, medical staff, and the community.” The third initiative aims
“to improve the quality of health services for pregnant and postpartum women andnewborns.” PHJ will focus on the initiatives that each area requires, rather than
implementing all of these initiatives in each of the villages.
 Rolling out Proven Effective Activities to Other Areas of the Union Territory
As for this initiative, PHJ will organize project evaluation meetings with the Nay Pyi Taw
Department of the Public Health and Township Medical Offices.
 Strengthening the Partnership between the Township Medical Office, Medical
Staff, and the Community
For this initiative, PHJ will organize advocacy meetings with villagers as well as regularmeetings and project workshops with Lewe Township basic health staff to prepare
activity plans, and will provide equipment to enhance IT infrastructure and provide
refresher training on the use of health management information systems (HMIS).
 Increasing Access to Health Services for Pregnant and Postpartum Women
PHJ will support the conduct of health education meetings to increase the healthknowledge of community members, promote the use of health services, monitor healthfacility inventories, facilitate home visits by MCH Promoters, and provide training for
midwives and auxiliary midwives.
Due to the changes in Myanmar since February 1, 2021, and due also to the COVID-19
countermeasures that were in place, PHJ suspended the execution of many of its planned
activities. As the situation has improved somewhat since December 2021, PHJ has been
implementing project activities in villages where the safety and security of the Myanmar
office staff can be assured, in coordination with related organizations such as the MOFA
and the Japanese Embassy in Myanmar. PHJ will redesign the project plan in responseto changing needs at the project site.
