Government of Zambia - Ministry of Health

Objet publié

UPDATE: As of June 2009, CIDA has not made any further disbursements to the Zambia Ministry of Health. This measure will remain in effect until the Agency is satisfied with corrective measures. The purpose of the project is to support the Government of the Republic of Zambia in its implementation of its National Health Strategic Plan (2006-2010) and Human Resource for Health Strategic Plan (2006-2010). Zambia's National Health Strategic Plan focuses on the implementation of the Basic Health Care Package and attainment of identified National Health Priorities covering human resources, public health, and support systems. The Human Resource for Health Strategic Plan, which is an integrated part of the National Health Strategic Plan, is the government's response to the human resource crisis. It includes, among other priorities, improvements in training, incentives for improved performance of health staff, retention schemes for critical cadres, and increased recruitment of staff.
