Principles and practices of health systems strengthening in fragile settings: conceptual reflections and operational perspectives – a poster
Despite its importance, health system strengthening (HSS) remains an elusive concept – even more so in fragile and conflict-affected settings (FCAS), where HSS efforts are complicated by weak governance and fragmented response. This study on which this poster is based, aims to reflect on the principles and practices of HSS in FCAS, combining reflections, operational experiences, photos and stories from those involved in “doing” HSS, with a shift in focus on expanding the evidence base on the “how”. The ultimate aim is to influence NGOs and donors’ practices on HSS programming in FCAS to ensure strong and equitable health systems for all.
