Global Presence

Without strengthened human resources for health care, it will be impossible to sustain gains made in child survival, family planning and other areas while responding to critical demands such as the HIV & AIDS pandemic.

An innovative global initiative funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Capacity Project strengthens human resources to implement quality health programming in developing countries.

In partnership with IntraHealth, MSH provides technical assistance to strengthen organizational management of local health partners as well as at the district health levels in the Iringa, Mtwara, and Lindi regions, covering a total of 20 districts.

The Capacity Project: Tanzania's focus is:

• To build the capacity of the national and local government authorities to predict;
• To plan for and recruit the health and social welfare force;
• To build the capacity of local Tanzania Human Resource Capacity Project (THRP) partners in leadership and management to support their roles in the THRP and beyond.
