LINKING RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, SYSTEMS, AND PARTNERSHIP TO REDUCE MORTALITY.
| In 1993, the World Development Report suggested that mortality rates could be significantly reduced if resources were directed more in line with local “burden of disease.” The Tanzania Essential Health Interventions Project (TEHIP) was founded to test this idea. After a decade of research and experience, the verdict is in: the idea is solid, and has produced some remarkable results. Two districts in Tanzania, for example, have seen child mortality rates fall by more than 40%. This Web site presents the TEHIP story. It is a story of hope, and holds important lessons that can be applied widely throughout the countries of the developing world, and beyond.

This In_Focus Web site assembles a variety of resources from the Tanzania Essential Health Interventions Project (TEHIP). Including slide presentations, case studies, videos, research reports, books, etc., the site presents the TEHIP story: its origins, impact, important lessons, observations, and recommendations for decision-makers and policy analysts. |
