Abstract

Human Resources for Health (HRH) is rightly prominent on the global health agenda as the countdown to 2015

and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) grows in resonance. The global health community

has made strides in generating evidence, sharing knowledge, and reaching agreements on how to advance

HRH policy and achieve results.*

The upcoming rounds of Global Health Initiative (GHI) funding decisions offer scope to further develop country

HRH programming and put commitments into practice to improve health systems. HRH experts and practitioners

recognise this window of opportunity and have been engaged in debate on how to support the development and

review of proposals to GHIs to integrate and implement evidence-based, best practice and/or innovative HRH solutions within disease-focused funding channels.
