Strengthening Health System Foundations

Strengthening Health System Foundations

Our people-centered approach ensures that those with whom we work are the drivers of progress and will lead their own way to optimal and quality health systems.

We strengthen health systems as a means of addressing key health challenges, achieving universal health coverage, and ultimately improving population health. We improve health system functions through policy and practice changes that increase access, coverage, quality, and/or efficiency of health services, leading to better health outcomes in the countries where we work.
