Main priorities and initiatives

We implement programmes in five areas: e-Health, health worker migration, HIV/AIDS, maternal and child health, and non-communicable diseases (click here for definition). Specifically, we focus on:

(i) Advocacy initiatives, which are developed so we can inform national, regional and global policies. (For example, we have been able to initiate and sustain a discussion on e-health among senior policy makers in East, Central and Southern Africa.

(ii) Analytical studies, which we produce to enhance understanding on priority and emerging health issues within the Commonwealth. (For example, a series of discussion papers on climate change, e-health and maternal and child health have been commissioned and published)
