Slight increase in grant size
Mainly intl funding in LICs
Perceptions of availability of funding and
interest in HPSR (2008 and 2010)
18 Taghreed Adam, Saad Ahmad and Abdul Ghaffar, in preparation
Funding Interest
2010
2008
Still increasing interest
No further funding increase
Conclusions from the landscaping
General increase in HSR
Some, but smaller, increase in HSR on LMICs
About 10% of HSR on LMICs – only a small fraction by LIC based researchers
The increase in HSR on LMICs is mainly due to research by HIC- and partly MIC-based researchers
Most HSR in LICs is externally funded
Need capacity building and funding of HSR in LMICs
– HSR: A key component of essential national health research

Health systems differ …

… but share the same purpose
November 19, 2010 22
Debbie Chase, NCCHTA
A health system in one country ….
… has evidence, knowledge and innovations
that can be transferred, adapted and utilized …
… but adding local evidence, knowledge and
innovations is in addition needed …
… to inform building and improving the health
system in another country

HSR concepts – goals and framework
Not enough HSR is conducted to understand which HSS approach works best
Majority of donors/research organizations do not use a specific framework to define HSR
– «(health system) can literally mean anything […] that contributes to improving, maintaining health», Medical Research Council, LMIC
WHO Framework is a reference - «it helps us stabilise the categories we work on», Bilateral Agency
A simpler framework is needed that can be more amenable to research
- «(WHO Framework) can be used for certain analytical purposes (or) to categorize investments or expenses […] but within a research context […] you’d need something else », Global Health Initiative
Data : Boston University School of Public Health
Marta Feletto, in preparation
Implementation research – Conclusions from report
Urgent need for uniform nomenclature to define IR
Lack of a more standardized definition makes it difficult for funders to allocate resources and to advocate for advancing the science
Without clear terms, no structure (methodology, curriculum) can be build and few investors can be convinced to invest.
While the recognition … has grown, the human capacity to carry out the research has not kept pace.
However, innovative forms of governance are required that ensure harmonization
