Health financing and economics


Health financing and economics

Overview

Our team draws on multidisciplinary skills in public financial management, health finance, costing, efficiency studies and other economics analyses to inform policy, build resilient health systems and facilitate efficient implementation of health programmes to improve healthcare in the region.

Sustainable financing and the achievement of value for money in health interventions are increasingly recognised as key pillars in achieving the sustainable development goals for health and universal healthcare. 

At a time when many countries face large cuts to donor funding and competing demands for domestic resources, we provide technical support to decision makers in navigating this new reality.
