(27) Sri Lanka has achieved a relatively high status of healthcare as seen by the low national levels of infant, child and maternal mortality. However, maternal and child under-nutrition continues to be a major challenge, adversely affecting children s physical and intellectual development. Additionally, significant health and nutrition inequalities exist across the country, between geographic areas and socio-economic groups. The main objective of these profiles is to promote a culture of evidence-based decision making and resource allocation. They should help policy-makers and programme managers in identifying major problems as well as disadvantaged groups, setting priorities and establishing effective strategies to achieve MDGs with equity.
