African Christian Health Associations: Joining Forces for Improving Human Resources for Health

摘要

Recognizing that part of strengthening the national health sectors of sub-Saharan Africa required a response to the human resources for health (HRH) crisis, the Christian Health Associations (CHAs) decided to act. In 2004, 14 African CHAs organized a Technical Working Group on HRH. The goal was twofold; (1) to share experiences and build a knowledge base; and (2) to give a voice through advocacy to the crucial role faith-based health networks play in national health sectors on the African continent.
