Abstract

This book draws on 15 years of IDRC-funded health systems research undertaken by researchers working closely with communities and decision-makers. They have generated contextually relevant evidence at local, national, regional, and global levels to tackle entrenched health systems challenges. Lessons related to six specific enveloping topics gleaned from this research are: Development matters; People matter; Politics matter; Systems matter; Evidence matters; Funding matters. Inter-relationships between these matters, and critical reflections on remaining challenges, are shared with the global health community, including funding organizations. Part 5 identifies gaps and strategic opportunities for the way forward.
