USAID’s Health Financing, Governance, and Information Systems Strengthening Activity

The purpose of the Health Financing, Governance and Information Systems (HFG/IS) activity is to strengthen national and select provincial governments’ capacity to identify and act upon key levers for resource mobilization and for reductions in household catastrophic health expenditures, to identify and respond to gaps in equity, quality, and coverage of health services, to strengthen citizens’ capacity to hold government accountable for health services, and to foster collaborative learning.

Targeted systems strengthening include efforts to improve the resilience and capacity of the public health system to prevent, detect, and respond to emerging infectious disease threats with a “one health approach.” USAID envisions that this activity will strengthen the role of citizens, women, and marginalized groups in the design, delivery, monitoring, and accountability of health services, which in turn fosters trust in the health system and sustainability.

Recognizing the interdependence of governance, financing, and information, this activity supports a targeted, synergistic approach to complement the USAID Integrated Health Services Delivery Accelerator and USAID Santé Gouvernance Activities.

Provincial-level interventions will focus on the 8 provinces of implementation for these Activities (Kasai Central, Kasai Oriental, Haut-Katanga, Haut- Lomami, Lomani, Lualaba, Tanganyika, and Sud-Kivu), be coordinated to promote synergies and avoid duplication of efforts, and contribute to a broader learning agenda to foster adoption of best practices and national scale-up.

USAID envisions a well-planned collaborative learning agenda for this Activity and commitment to gender and social inclusion principles.
