ReBUILD for Resilience examines health systems in fragile settings experiencing violence, conflict, pandemics and other shocks. Our aim is to produce high-quality, practical, multidisciplinary and scalable health systems research which can be used to build health systems resilience and improve the health and lives of many millions of people.
More on the challenges that ReBUILD for Resilience is addressing here.
ReBUILD for Resilience is an international consortium of organisations from Lebanon, Myanmar, Nepal, Sierra Leone and the UK. Between us we have expertise across all health systems pillars and in a wide range of disciplines including public health, epidemiology, social sciences, health economics, political science, research methodologies and gender.
The consortium is building on the work started during the highly successful ReBUILD programme but is focusing on a wider range of stressors in a wider range of contexts – fragile and shock-prone (FASP) settings.
The consortium has been active since 2020 and is funded by a £7.68 million grant from the UK government’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.
The ReBUILD programme created an extensive bank of health research in fragile and conflict-affected settings (see that work in the resources section of this site). It became a leading global research team and reference point for academics, organisations, policy makers and practitioners. However, global health challenges continue to grow – not least due to the current COVID-19 pandemic – and there is a pressing need for sustained research which focuses on a range of shocks and stressors in a variety of settings.
Our primary research question is therefore:
‘How do we develop resilience capacities to ensure responsive, effective, inclusive, gender-equitable and sustainable health systems in fragile and shock-prone settings?’
There’s more on our research themes and projects.
