The most powerful public health measures are to count every birth, count every death and understand causes of death. But it isn't just about public health.Birth and death records provide individuals with access to basic rights and national governments essential information to target sevices towards those in need. This is the foundation of the social contract. This is the importance of counting everyone and ensuring everyone counts.

Have you been wondering what exactly MSD is, and why it is crucial for achieving global sustainability? Market Systems Development (MSD) is a powerful approach to creating inclusive and sustainable economic growth. Over the years, billions of dollars have been poured into aid programs with the hope of alleviating poverty and fostering development. Yet, despite these efforts, lasting change often remained elusive. The traditional aid model often focused on direct interventions, such as food handouts or temporary infrastructure projects. While these efforts provided immediate relief, they seldom led to long-term improvements. People realised that for true progress, the underlying market systems needed to be addressed. The idea was simple:?why not create a system that supports sustainable economic growth instead of continuously giving aid? This led to a pivotal shift in thinking—towards sustainability and systemic change. These were the thoughts that birthed the Market Systems Development approach. At its core, MSD focuses on understanding and addressing the root causes of market failures that hinder economic development, especially in low-income and conflict-affected regions. Rather than providing direct aid or temporary fixes, MSD aims to create lasting change by transforming the market systems in which people and businesses operate. By addressing systemic issues in markets, MSD strengthens local economies, making them more resilient to shocks such as economic downturns, climate change, and conflicts. This helps reduce dependence on external aid. The success of MSD lies in its ability to build markets that work for people and the planet, ensuring that economic development goes hand-in-hand with social and environmental progress.

Charting the Future of Financial Sustainability in Health: Conversations with African Countries On the sidelines of the 77th World Health Assembly, the African Union Commission, the Global Fund, the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the Global Financing Facility, AUDA-NEPAD, the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the East African Community (EAC) co-hosted Charting the Future of Financial Sustainability in Health: Conversations with African Countries. This event brought together African Ministers of Health and Finance, leading global health experts and development partners to discuss financial sustainability in the African health sectors. It also served as the launch of a new policy paper authored by the ODI, “What Can a Ministry of Finance do for Health Spending?”, which takes a public finance perspective on improving health spending efficiency. https://buff.ly/3Vm2day #funding #investing #fintech #technology #sustainability #growth #cybersecurity #environment #food #automation #automotive #recycling #nutrition #medicine #robotics #farming #augmentedreality #neuroscience #grants #ukgrants #startupgrants #businessgrants #ukgovernmentgrant #sme #smegrant #businessfunding #smefunding #technologygrant #innovationgrant #capti #captiinnovation #gamechanging #gamechanginginnovation #disruptiveinnovation #smartgrant #ai #manufacturing #sustainable #innovation #telecoms #semiconductors #business #IUK #InnovateUK #SmartGrant #InnovateUKfunding

Do the impacts of MSD activities #sustain and #scale after close? The answer lies at the core of MSD, and USAID is investing in a global series of evaluations through MSP to investigate this question. MSP’s recently published evidence synthesis tackles this head-on, synthesizing evidence across the two #ex-post evaluations conducted thus far.? The highly visualized brief?(scroll through below) captures key findings that bolster the evidence base for MSD.?https://lnkd.in/eT_mvGMw ?? Check it out for data-rich findings on sustainability, scale, and #benefits for target populations (e.g. yields, incomes, the scale of engagement, and satisfaction with the business model).? The brief closes by spotlighting six #implications for future programming, including the importance of building trust, tailored measurement, and smart use of subsidies. Thank you to Ben Fowler, Marrium Khan, and Khaled Khan of MarketShare Associates for compiling this brief, conducted through USAID’s Feed the Future Market Systems and Partnerships (MSP) Activity led by DAI. The ex-post series is overseen at MSP by Anna Garloch, and the series benefits greatly from the support of a technical advisory committee Kristin O'Planick at USAID/REFS, Rachel Shah at Mercy Corps, and Tatiana Pulido in USAID’s PSE Hub.

?? The recently published "2023 Progress Report on the Global Action Plan for Healthy Lives and Well-being for All” sheds light on what has worked, what hasn't, and what lies ahead. Let's join this important conversation and contribute to advancing these key topics! ???? Within the report, three pillars of progress stand tall, illustrating positive strides under SDG3 GAP: 1?? The introduction of an improvement cycle by SDG3 GAP, which empowers national governments to shape development priorities and enhance agency coordination. Through the utilisation of catalytic funds, WHO country offices have been leading collaborative efforts alongside other agencies to drive positive change. 2?? Cultivating collaborative ecosystems that connect health-focused agencies with various sectors, fostering synergy and advancing both health and development agendas. This includes establishing active communities of practice and integrating complementary initiatives for greater alignment. 3?? Showcasing the effectiveness of country-specific and thematic approaches, driven by strong leadership, effective partnerships, and alignment with national objectives. Notably, collaboration on primary health care, sustainable financing, equity, and cross-cutting issues has yielded remarkable results, even in challenging circumstances. Let's use our expertise and insights to move these critical discussions forward. Together, let's shape the future of global health and well-being at the upcoming World Health Assembly.? ?? https://lnkd.in/eH5zeMtX
