Government of Mozambique - Ministry of Health

Objet publié

This project forms the cornerstone of CIDA’s support for the achievement of development objectives in health in Mozambique. Through this contribution to Mozambique’s health sector common fund (known in Portuguese as ProSaude), CIDA is helping the Government of Mozambique achieve the goals and objectives of its Health Sector Strategic Plan, including the National Strategic Plan to Combat HIV/AIDS in the Health Sector. Through this project, CIDA is working in close collaboration with other donors and the Government of Mozambique to strengthen the effectiveness of its aid through: focusing on effective, transparent, and accountable country systems; increasing coordination and harmonization among donors; and reinforcing mutual accountability. Sector-wide approach projects such as this one also help foster greater policy dialogue between CIDA, government, and partners, which helps to reinforce efforts for effective, focused aid and long-term development results. Continuous monitoring and evaluation of this project is undertaken in coordination with other donors. The project aims to achieve not only nation-wide progress in the health sector, but also progress in other areas, such as improvements in the Government of Mozambique’s ability to manage and administer its health sector, particularly improvements in transparency, financial management, and accountability. These improvements are an important factor in ensuring that the Government of Mozambique can maintain the progress achieved through this project.
