**8. Conclusion**

The introduction of the BANC approach has been a positive milestone for South Africa. Studies show that many African countries such as Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania and others have seen positive results with the implementation of the WHO FANC model [1, 8, 17]. Although South Africa is still experiencing numerous challenges with the BANC approach, there is hope that this country will also achieve positive results as the country continues to adjust and improve the BANC approach to suit its circumstances.
