The Activity is focusing on enabling local actors to lead implementation of an SBC activity while strengthening support for priority capacities.

utilizing human resource for health data

To respond to the ICA findings and to address the issues noted above, USAID’s Health System Sustainability Activity (the Activity) worked with the NDHR and INS to develop training on health workforce data use for decision making. The training will use a problem-based, hands-on approach to train mid-level managers within the Directorate General of Corporate Services (DGCS) to use HRH data to identify challenges; conduct analysis; engage relevant stakeholders in the collection and sharing of HRH data; use of HRH data to support decision making. Most importantly, it will ensure equitable allocation of workforce and improve training and professional development opportunities for the health workforce across the country especially at the primary health care level.

ROADMAP_NAMIBIA
Publication

The Namibian government has a long history of working with the private sector to deliver essential health services. However, the engagement between the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) and private sector actors within the health sector is mostly through ad hoc interactions during national campaigns, planning processes and service delivery. Thus, there is a need for more-coordinated and more-strategic engagement to effectively leverage the private sector's capacity and strategically position the private sector’s role in advancing universal health coverage (UHC).
