Local Research Capacity Building

Implementation research has the power to TRANSFORM the way that healthcare is delivered in practice. However, far too often research priorities aren’t guided by those in the greatest position to effect change.
At HAI, we trained public health leaders from the countries where we worked to design and evaluate health system interventions that respond to LOCAL PRIORITIES. And, in our own research, we always worked side-by-side with our public sector partners from design to dissemination because research is only worth the CHANGE it informs.
