Resource Description:

Without the appropriate skills and knowledge to run an organization and allocate resources, a country’s government, the private sector, and civil society cannot meet the health care and other needs of its citizens. Health Systems 20/20 is working with government counterparts and local and regional institutions to ensure that countries have the capacity to provide technical assistance, training, and research for improved health care.

Health Systems 20/20’s capacity-building component focuses on the management, organizational, and business planning competencies essential to sustainable health care organizations. The project uses a conceptual framework that comprises six core organizational competencies.
