Introduction of the Organization
Objective:

Basic Urban Rural Services & Training (BURST) was established in 1998, as a premier professional association with over 30 professionals, scientists, and administrators as individual members. The primary role of BURST has been in health, manpower training, health systems development and policy formulation. BACKGROUND in March 1998, a group of thirty Professionals met for three days at Karachi. Among other issues, concern about the increasing gap between the actual and desirable health services in Pakistan was expressed. To bridge this gap, the group emphasized the need for professional development of health administrators towards effective management of resources. The group also felt the absence of a common platform which could bring together all professionals interested in health care. Subsequently, several meetings of professional groups were held at national as well as regional level to elicit comments on the need to form an all Pakistan society of health administrators. Some very good proposals were put forward in the meeting as well as people expressed their views through correspondence
