The goal of this project is to extend sustainable African capacity to produce and use high quality health policy and systems (HPS) research. It will review capacity development needs amongst the African organisations and their national networks; strengthen African skills and organisational capacity to support HPS research and training; extend existing training programmes provided by the African participants; and support the development of excellent academic teaching and research networks both to sustain national and regional demand for HPS training and research, and to facilitate the use of research in policymaking.
