224 National Budgeted Action Plan for the Repositioning of Family Planning has planned the targeting by department of 1,143,000 (total numbers for the country) women aged from 15 to 49 years recently using family planning from 2014 to 2018. Actions are under way to reach this objective.  225 Integration of basic health programs in the national development plans: The Health sector is visibly the one where the State set up the most programs. Strong incidence disease or even neglected or little-known diseases are very often the subject of a national program. Therefore, we can mention the national program against AIDS, the national program against malaria, the national program against tuberculosis, the program on non-transmitted diseases, the expanded immunisation program, etc. 226 Health programs are addressed in the various national or local development policy papers. It is the case especially of long term national prospective studies such as Benin 2025 Alafia or in the various poverty reduction strategy papers and in community development plans. o 227 Mobilization of sectors of society for disease prevention measures and child health The community-based approach is more and more used in health-care centres and social promotion centres which are directed at all levels of society (parents, community leaders, community agents) and give information about the use of food knowledge for child health and nutrition, knowledge of breastfeeding benefits, hygiene care of the environment and domestic accident prevention (for instance, food poisoning). 228 Moreover, some NGOs perform community-based awareness during weighing and cooking demonstrations within communities including remote villages. 229 Civil society organisations are also active. Thus, NGOs, local communities and beneficiary populations take part to the planning and management of basic health care programs. For instance, the selection of management committees is more and more customary (water point or health care centre management committee). o 230 231 Resource mobilisation by the Government for local governments In the framework of decentralisation, the law N°97-029 of January 15, 1999, relating to the organisation of the communes in the Republic of Benin, stipulates in its article 100, that the commune is in charge at the level of the district, village or city district, of the building, equipment, and maintenance of public health care and social promotion centres, of public cultural youth infrastructure, of sports and leisure. It ensures besides, the maintenance of these centres and infrastructure. To this end, the Government provides with necessary resources. In this respect, the communes establish five-year development plans in which health issues are always taken into account.
