Learning health systems
Learning - at individual, team, organization and crossorganization levels - is fundamental to health systems strengthening and the achievement of health goals. Yet, many health systems, especially in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), still do not have adequate capacity to generate and use the knowledge that they need to be effective. Investments in learning activities tend to be a remarkably small proportion of overall investments in healt…
Modified scoping review of the enablers and barriers to implementing primary health care in the Covid-19 context
Since the Alma Ata Declaration of 1978, countries have varied in their progress towards establishing and sustaining comprehensive primary health care (PHC) and realizing its associated vision of ‘Health for All’. International health emergencies such as the coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) pandemic underscore the importance of PHC in underpinning health equity, including via access to routine essential services and emergency responsiveness. This review …
Implementation research is crucial to countries’ efforts to strengthen learning health systems
Capacity, committed funding and co-production—institutionalizing implementation research in low- and middle-income countries
What role can health policy and systems research play in supporting responses to Covid-19 that strengthen socially just health systems
To say that we live in turbulent times is a massive understatement. COVID-19 ruthlessly exposes the fault lines of health services and systems, and the responses put in place to prevent its spread or mitigate its effects may affect people more than the actual infection. The outbreak in Wuhan quickly grew to a pandemic that has affected countries and regions all over the world in many, and as of yet, little understood ways. This is a global infect…
Implementation research in LMICs—evolution through innovation
Major global health gains can be achieved by strengthening the delivery of public health policies and programmes in low-and middleincome countries (LMICs). The population impact of evidencebased technologies and interventions such as drugs, vaccines and health know-how can only be maximized where programmes optimally identify and reach target populations and support them to take up and sustain their effective use. Examples include significant gap…
The UCL–Lancet Commission on Migration and Health
Setting the agenda for nurse leadership in India
The study emphasises that the nursing empowerment needs institutional reforms to facilitate nurse's distributed leadership across the health system and to enable their collective advocacy that questions the status quo and the structures that uphold it
Understanding the complex relationships among actors involved in the implementation of public-private mix (PPM) for TB control in India, using social theory
This paper demonstrates that applying social theory can enable a better understanding of the complex relationship across public, private and NGO sectors. A closer understanding of these processes is a prerequisite for bridging the gap between field-level practices and central policy intentions, facilitating a move towards more effective partnership strategies for strengthening local health systems. The study contributes to our understanding of im…
Negotiating power relations, gender equality, and collective agency
Interventions to strengthen participation in health systems can engender social transformation. However they must consider how changing power relations can be sustained outside participatory spaces, and how discourse frames the rationale for community participation
Doing implementation research on health governance
Frontline researchers through their experiences shape the research process and its outcome and they play a central role in the research. It demonstrates that frontline researcher resilience is very crucial when conducting health policy and systems research
Fair publication of qualitative research in health systems

Privilege and inclusivity in shaping Global Health agendas
Getting the water-carrier to light the lamps
The government of India has, over the past decade, implemented the "integration" of traditional, complementary and alternative medical (TCAM) practitioners, specifically practitioners of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, Sowa-rigpa, and Homoeopathy (collectively known by the acronym AYUSH), in government health services. A range of operational and ethical challenges has manifested during this process of large health system reform. We…
Anchoring contextual analysis in health policy and systems research
Cultural consonance, constructions of science and co-existence
This review examined the determinants, patterns and imports of official recognition, and incorporation of different traditional, complementary and alternative systems of medicine (TCAM) in the public health establishment of low- and middle-income countries, with a particular focus on India. Public health systems in most countries have tended to establish health facilities centred on allopathy, and then to recognize or derecognize different TCAM b…
What explains regulatory failure? Analysing the architecture of health care regulation in two Indian states
Regulating health care is a pre-eminent policy challenge in many low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), particularly those with a strong private health sector. Yet, the regulatory approaches instituted in these countries have often been reported to be ineffective-India being exemplary. There is limited empirical research on the architecture and processes of health care regulation in LMIC that would explain these regulatory failures. We undertoo…
Building the Field of Health Policy and Systems Research
Following the First Global Symposium on Health Systems Research in Montreux in November 2010, PLoS Medicine commissioned three articles on the state-of-the-art in Health Policy and Systems Research (HPSR). Three Policy Forum articles, authored by a diverse group of global health academics, critically examine the current challenges to the field and lay out what is needed to build capacity in HPSR and support local policy development and health sys…

Examining sex differentials in the uptake and process of HIV testing in three high prevalence districts of India
Sex differentials in the uptake of HIV testing have been reported in a range of settings, however, men's and women's testing patterns are not consistent across these settings, suggesting the need to set sex differentials against gender norms in patient testing behaviour and provider practices. A community-based, cross-sectional survey among 347 people living with HIV in three HIV high prevalence districts of India examined reasons for undergoing …
Discursive gaps in the implementation of public health policy guidelines in India
Private providers and HIV testing in Pune, India
We explored HIV testing practices of private medical providers in an urban Indian setting in Pune, western India. 215 private practitioners (PPs) and 36 persons-in-charge of private laboratories were interviewed in separate surveys. 77% of PPs had prescribed HIV tests and 94% of laboratories had performed HIV tests, or collected samples for HIV testing. Among those providers who had prescribed/performed tests, practices which violated national po…
