Overview

The global COVID-19 pandemic tested health systems around the world. Many countries struggled to respond to the rapidly spreading pandemic while also maintaining the provision of essential health services. As we work to restore essential health services to pre-pandemic levels, strengthening health systems is an essential step, with primary health care as the foundation.聽

Over the past year, USAID commissioned multiple learning activities to better understand the role of health systems strengthening approaches and digital health within COVID-19 investments in low-and middle-income countries, and how responses designed to address immediate needs also helped to prepare for future shocks and strengthen health systems for the long term. This work is evidence of how health system strengthening reinforces resilience, helps to ensure sustained quality primary health care, and can help countries be more prepared for future health emergencies.聽
