Burundi: Appui à l’Institut National de Santé Publique du Burundi
Burundi has experienced a quick development of its health system starting with the peace process in 2006 and later on from 2010 onwards. This last decade has witnessed a central reform of the Ministry of Health, a development of the strategic and operational planning, an improvement of the standardisation rules in health, and the health authority decentralisation process. The developments have been coherent, and there is still a need to improve capacities within coordination organisms in several competences (operational planning, supportive supervision, analysis and interpretation).

What: |
The General Objective of the project “ Appui à l’Institut National de Santé Publique du Burundi” is to contribute to the strengthening of the health system and the development of universal health coverage for the people of Burundi by developing national training, analytical, advisory and research capacities in public health. The specific objective is to strengthen the capacity of the INSP (expertise, knowledge and resources) to support the formulation, implementation and monitoring and evaluation of integrated health policy in Burundi with the help of tools, information and adequate human resources, in close partnership with all public health partners and the private sector. INSP aims to become the central organ in the Burundian landscape to generate, compile, analyse and disseminate information and knowledge necessary for a decision making informed policy and strategy at all levels of the country. The action will reinforce INSP to give it the means of its mission and its institutional role at the country level and with regard to other international institutes as well as to strengthen its capacity in training of health practitioners. |
