Global Presence

Funded through USAID’s Global Health Bureau’s Office of Population and Reproductive Health in collaboration with the Office of HIV/AIDS, the Leadership, Management and Governance Project (2011-2016) is ensuring that the path to health systems strengthening becomes clear, compelling, and readily accessible to health providers, program managers, and policy makers around the world.

The Leadership, Management and Governance Project (LMG) strengthens and expands the people-centered capacity building strategy pioneered under the Leadership, Management and Sustainability Project (2005-1010).  The project’s objective is to support health systems strengthening by addressing the gap in leadership, management and governance capacity of policy makers, health care providers and program managers to implement quality health services at all levels of the health system.  Governance functions are an important focus of LMG because they provide the ultimate commitment to improving service delivery, and fostering sustainability through accountability, engagement, transparency and stewardship.

Led by Management Sciences for Health (MSH), the LMG consortium includes the African Medical and Research Foundation (AMREF); International Planned Parenthood Foundation (IPPF); Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health (JHBSPH); Medic Mobile; and Yale University Global Health Leadership Institute (GHLI).
