Episode 4: Health Governance

Health governance is foundational to strengthening health systems around the world, but it’s something that many development practitioners struggle to conceptualize. We acknowledge it as important, but we don’t always know how to influence it. In this episode, we’ll talk about why governance is so difficult, consider how to apply a governance lens, and learn from an example of HFG’s governance work in Vietnam. The Health Finance and Governance (HFG) project is a six-year project funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development under Cooperative Agreement No: AID-OAA-A-12–00080. HFG is implemented by Abt Associates in partnership with Avenir Health, Broad Branch Associates, Development Alternatives Inc., Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Results for Development Institute, RTI International, and Training Resources Group, Inc.
