Foundational Reforms for Financing and Delivery of PHC Collaborative: Call for Expressions of Interest
The Joint Learning Network for Universal Health Coverage (JLN) brings together 37 member countries committed to achieving universal health coverage (UHC). JLN is a member-driven network and facilitates high-impact practitioner-to-practitioner experience sharing and learning to identify solutions to common challenges. The JLN invites country member Expressions of Interest to participate in a Foundational Reforms for Financing and Delivery of PHC Collaborative focused on addressing common bottlenecks to financing and delivering PHC.
Deadline to Register: December 15, 2023.
Country teams
To participate, Country Core Groups (CCGs) are encouraged to constitute a team of four to five individuals committed to action to improve PHC financing and service delivery. In our experience, active and continuous participation are key factors for success in cross-country exchange and knowledge co-creation. We are therefore seeking teams who can meet the expectations below:
- The team should have a deep understanding of the country’s PHC financing and service delivery.
- Attend in-person meetings in March 2024, November 2024, and July 2025.
- Attend, and actively participate in virtual learning events quarterly from April 2024 to June 2025.
- Contribute to the development of knowledge products.
- Facilitate the sharing of learning among key stakeholders in-country.
- Engage with and be responsive to the technical facilitator(s) via email and telephone.
The collaborative learning activities will be organized in English, but the technical facilitation team will provide simultaneous French interpretation for virtual and in-person learning events to allow Francophone countries to participate.
