Global Presence

The Program to Build Leadership and Accountability in Nigeria's Health System (PLAN-Health) is a five-year Leadership, Management and Sustainability Associate Award which extends the recently concluded Capacity Building Project. PLAN-Health will build on the successes of the Capacity Building Project to foster sustainable change in the Nigerian health system, expanding the initial program focus to state and local government levels. The project aims to strengthen institutional capacities of select public and civil society organizations for improved HIV and other health services for Nigeria's vulnerable populations. Additionally, it will develop and institutionalize local capacity for building management and leadership skills and practices in the Nigerian health sector. The project will explore and provide evidence on the linkages between health systems strengthening and improved health impact.
