Steady Strides toward Success: MSH’s 2023 Annual Report

Steady Strides toward Success: MSH’s 2023 Annual Report

Our 2023-2030 Strategy and 2023 Annual Report lay out our commitment to continuously provide governments, health organizations, and the private sector with the locally led strategies, tools, and management support needed to deliver high-functioning health systems in a deeply changing world.  

Dear Friends,

As we reflect on the first year of our seven-year organizational strategy, I am so proud to share the progress we are making in each of our five strategic priorities. This strategy is rooted in localization and aims to keep decision making and ownership in the hands of the communities where we work. 

Across the globe, we are focusing on priority areas within the realm of health systems strengthening. Central to this strategy is unlocking the incredible potential of our talented staff and partners around the world. By training local health workers, helping pharmacy professionals strengthen their expertise, supporting laboratory professionals, and partnering with the many local communities with which we work, we ensure that their voices are central to decision making. By walking shoulder to shoulder with our partners, we can be at the forefront of innovations that address the true needs on the ground. Mobilizing both new and existing partnerships with governments, the private sector, and local health leaders is helping us take on some of the world’s most persistent health challenges, from infectious to noncommunicable diseases, in promising new ways. We are committed to using data to drive better decision making and innovation and to tying our strategy metrics to the Sustainable Development Goals. And by approaching our work with a lens of diversity, equity, and inclusion, we are addressing health inequities worldwide

These efforts have led us here, to this year’s Annual Report, one of the ways we demonstrate our impact. I am honored to share this snapshot of our work, on behalf of my MSH colleagues around the world. 

Sincerely,

Marian W. Wentworth, President and Chief Executive Officer

We are proud of the local communities who are our partners. They lead the way, building out their health systems, grappling with all the classic challenges of time, finances, and infrastructure, but they persevere. Every day, the determination of these local partners spurs MSH on.
