Abstract
Training and innovative tools were key to the success of the Tanzania Essential
Health Interventions Project, along with small funding increases. The tools and
strategies allowed the districts of Rufiji and Morogoro to target their new
resources on the largest contributors to the burden of disease and on health care
delivery. The most dramatic result, among many, has been an average decline in
child mortality of more than 40%.
