AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Kidney Care Costs: Bhutan Kidney Foundation spending on chronic kidney disease support has topped Nu 21 million over 14 years, with Nu 3.51 million already spent in the first five months of 2026 as more patients travel abroad for long-term treatment. Child Health & Family Support: The Ministry of Health says 5,458 families are eligible for the Third Child Plus Programme, with individual verification of CID, bank details, addresses and birth order completed so first payments can go out this month. Population Policy: Prime Minister Dasho Tshering Tobgay urged local leaders to promote having a third child, warning depopulation is hitting villages hardest and linking the push to the Nu 10,000 monthly incentive for eligible families. School Safety Online: Education officials are calling for shared responsibility to tackle bullying after videos from schools reignited debate on student safety, family roles and social media influence. Cancer Story: A long-running ovarian cancer journey highlights delays in diagnosis, referral gaps and the financial and caregiving burden faced by patients outside major facilities. Food & Wellness: A Bumthang entrepreneur is turning oats from cattle feed into a health-food business after testing showed the crop can be safely consumed, aiming to boost farmer incomes and food self-sufficiency. Sports & Fitness: Bhutan wrapped the South Asian Bodybuilding meet with medals, spotlighting dieting and training as a pathway to healthier youth. Climate Risk: UNICEF reports nearly 9 in 10 Bhutanese children face at least one climate hazard, with drought the most widespread threat.
