    Open AccessVeena Sriram, Natasha Palmer et al.ARTICLEGlobalization and Health2024

    BACKGROUND: The role of evaluation evidence in guiding health systems strengthening (HSS) investments at the global-level remains contested. A lack of rigorous impact evaluations is viewed by some as an obstacle to scaling resources. However, others suggest that power dynamics and knowledge hierarchies continue to shape perceptions of rigor and acceptability in HSS evaluations. This debate has had major implications on HSS resource allocation in …

    High human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–prevalence countries in Southern and Eastern Africa continue to receive substantial external assistance (EA) for HIV programming, yet countries are at risk of transitioning out of HIV aid without achieving epidemic control. We sought to address two questions: (1) to what extent has HIV EA in the region been programmed and delivered in a way that supports long-term sustainability and (2) how should developme…

    Maternal depression is an important public health concern. We investigated whether a national-scale initiative that provides cash transfers to women giving birth in government health facilities, the Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY), reduced maternal depression in India's largest state, Uttar Pradesh. Using primary data on 1695 women collected in early 2015, our quasi-experimental design exploited the fact that some women did not receive the JSY cash …

  • Pregnancy registration systems can enhance health systems, increase accountability and reduce mortality

    Alain B Labrique, Alain Labrique et al.ARTICLEReproductive Health Matters2012Referencias: 14

    As many low- to middle-income countries strive to achieve targets of reduced maternal, neonatal and infant mortality set by the Millennium Development Goals, health system innovations which can accelerate progress are being carefully examined. Among these are technologies and systems which aim to strengthen frontline health workers and the health systems within which they work, by enabling the registration of pregnancies, births and outcomes. Acc…
