Health Systems

Strong health systems are vital to delivering high-performing primary health care (PHC) services to everyone, everywhere. That is why PATH's Health Systems team helps to accelerate people-centered PHC through innovation and partnerships.

We focus on promoting and evaluating models of integrated service delivery and systems and differentiate our approach by grounding it in principles of human-centered design, ensuring solutions are inclusive and locally owned, championed, and led.
