This project is the main phase of a longer-term research agenda, aiming to assess how public health systems in Africa are operating in the context of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Its focus is
therefore not directly on the operation of health care facilities, but
rather on the system of management and administration of public health
services. It is the follow-up to a pilot study conducted during 2005
through co-ordinated research in three countries: South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia.
Project updates
Please note this is a Pilot Study and the main phase is still underway.

2007 was essentially a planning year for this project. The aims of the pilot study revolved largely around establishing partnerships with the Department of Economics at the University of Lusaka and the Muhimbili College of Health Sciences in Dar es Salaam.
HEARD worked with the project partners to finalise tools and process submissions for ethics clearance. Fieldwork for the project at national, provincial and district levels in South Africa, and in Tanzania and Zambia starts early in 2008. |
