Health systems and policy methodological hub

The health systems and policy hub brings together our project staff, investigators, institutions, and partners working to support capacity in health policy and systems research.  

The hub members have expertise in qualitative, quantitative, mixed-methods and evidence synthesis approaches to examine health system goals, the system building blocks to achieve them and the policies to support them.  

The hub is focusing its efforts on preparing tutorials, presentations and lectures
