Project profile — Health Management Capacity Building Support

The health management capacity building support project (PARC) aims to improve the governance of Haiti's health system by helping: (i) to develop and implement human resources development policies and strategies in the health sector and (ii) to strengthen health management training systems. The PARC project addresses major weaknesses in Haiti's health system, such as the lack of qualified staff and the lack of adequate systems to manage human resources. Project activities focus on policies and strategies to decentralize human resources and improve management capacities at the central, departmental, and community levels.
