Ensuring access to good quality health services and integrated public health policies require mobilization of the government at all levels, the private sector, civil society, NGOs, and individuals. This track aims at providing a platform to exchange ideas on how to promote innovations in delivering health services. It will also look at how to strengthen public administration capacities for effective, efficient, responsive, equitable and accountable delivery of health services for sustainable development.
