A selective primary health care (PHC) approach referred to collectively under the acronym GOBI-FFF, these are strategies that are being adopted to improve maternal and child health as part of primary care. Respectively they include,

• Growth monitoring
• Oral rehydration therapy
• Breast-feeding
• Immunization
• Family Spacing (planning)
• Female Education
• Food Supplementation

This was further reduced to GOBI only (selective PHC) on the priorities set by donors for poor countries.
