Rwanda, a small landlocked country in East Africa, has made remarkable socioeconomic progress in the past decade with real GDP growth averaging 8.2% annually. This has translated into improvements in the health situation with major reforms such as health insurance improvement, meant to guarantee access for all to health care. Despite these achievements, several health challenges remain, notable among them being financial unsustainability of health facilities and services.

To ensure that the Rwandan government delivers health services at-scale and sustainably, FAH:

  • Supported government health financing policies to advance increased access and utilization of primary health services, including a community health financing policy brief.
  • Supported the CHW reform programme to improve the human capital, performance management and financial sustainability
