For more than 25 years, IntraHealth has collaborated with Uganda’s government, national health associations, and health training institutions to strengthen the country’s health workforce and improve health services.

Uganda has made notable progress in the past decade: decreasing poverty, reducing child mortality by half, increasing life expectancy, and almost doubling the modern contraceptive prevalence rate.

Yet the country is still far from its goal of universal health coverage. IntraHealth is working with the government and other partners to accelerate progress by increasing the number of health workers, maximizing the performance of the existing health workforce, and strengthening health service delivery to reach people most in need with high-quality care.

Together, we:

• Develop and implement national- and district-level strategies and approaches that strengthen Uganda’s health workforce and systems.
• Help health training institutions increase their graduates and better prepare students for careers in health care.
• Expand access to and use of high-quality health services to those most in need.
• Use the power of data to advocate for greater funding for Uganda’s health sector.
• Develop and implement digital health solutions, including iHRIS, IntraHealth’s open source data management software for the health workforce.
