Mozambique: Taking Forward Action on Human Resources for Health (HRH) with DFID/OGAC and Other Partners

In response to the critical HRH shortages in Africa, DFID and Office of the US Global Aids Coordinator (OGAC) have been in discussion with a number of African countries to develop strategies and country level actions. The aim is to demonstrate the maximum flexibility of disease specific programmes to support broad based primary care in line with countries’ health plans. The purpose of this evaluation is to facilitate agreement and document current flexibilities of funding streams for HRH and specific priority actions on HRH in selected African countries (initially Mozambique followed by Ethiopia, Zambia) with PEPFAR, DFID, MISAU and other partners, building on existing work and within national frameworks for health reform.
