| Description:: | The purpose of the Health Finance and Governance Project is to increase the use of priority health care services, including primary health care services, by partner countries populations through improved governance and financing systems in the health sector. Partner countries health systems are constrained by inadequate availability and inefficient use of resources, limiting their ability to reach their people with quality services. Under the Health Finance and Governance Project, partner countries will increase domestic resources available for health care, manage those resources more effectively, and increase the efficiency of purchasing decisions. Improved governance of the health sector will occur through improved strategic planning, and more efficient and accountable operations, thus enhancing the relevance and responsiveness of the health system to populations needs.
