Health Systems Strengthening (HSS) refers to efforts aimed at improving the overall performance of health systems. This includes enhancing the quality, accessibility, and efficiency of healthcare services. HSS focuses on various components such as workforce development, health information systems, and financing to ensure that health services meet the needs of the population.
The goal of HSS is to create resilient health systems that can effectively respond to health challenges, including outbreaks and chronic diseases. By investing in infrastructure, training, and resources, HSS aims to provide better health outcomes for communities and support initiatives like Universal Health Coverage and Sustainable Development Goals.
