Strengthening health and wellness systems for all
Strong, resilient, people-centred health systems
Sustainable health outcomes are achieved through strong, resilient and people-centred health systems. Our work focuses on improving the availability, accessibility, quality and use of essential health services, particularly at the primary health care level.
We bridge systemic gaps by integrating service delivery, community engagement, financing and governance, so that improvements last beyond a single project and no one is left behind.
Where we strengthen the system
Primary health care
Facility assessments and service improvement at the PHC level.
Health financing
Resource mobilisation and the Basic Health Care Provision Fund.
Immunization and MNCAH
Routine immunization and maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health.
Supply chain
Pharmaceutical systems and commodity security.
Governance and planning
Health sector planning, accountability and coordination.
Community health
Community-based promotion and demand creation.
How we approach it
Assess
Facility, financing and governance assessments carried out with health managers and communities to identify where services fall short.
Improve
Co-designed improvements to service delivery, financing flows, supply chains and management, implemented with the people who run them.
Sustain
Local capacity, routine data use and accountability mechanisms that keep gains in place after the programme ends.
Other focus areas
Governance and Institutional Reform
Stronger institutions and policies that reach people.
Women, Girl-Child and Vulnerable Groups
Protection, access and targeted support.
Entrepreneurship, Skills and Leadership
Resilient livelihoods and community leadership.
