The Alliance works at the intersection of evidence and action to strengthen health systems in low- and middle-income countries.
What we do
Our current work is guided by five strategic priorities for 2024–2028 – designed to respond to today’s global challenges while meeting country needs.
We do this by funding research, strengthening institutional capacity and supporting evidence-informed dialogue.
Our current priorities
Transforming health systems
Supporting countries by generating evidence and supporting locally driven change to achieve universal health coverage (UHC) through strengthening systems and services based on a primary health care (PHC) approach.
