Sustainability of ‘mHealth’ interventions in sub- Saharan Africa: a stakeholder analysis of an electronic community case management project in Malawi

摘要

The global health community and funding agencies are currently engaged in ensuring that worthwhile research-based programmes are sustainable. Despite its importance, few studies have analysed the sustainability of global health interventions. In this paper, we aim to explore barriers and facilitators for the wider implementation and sustainability of a mobile health (mHealth) intervention (Supporting LIFE Community Case Management programme) in Malawi, Africa.
