Humans are the most valuable resources we have when it comes to fighting disease and improving health. They can be nimble, efficient, and brilliant. But they can also be overworked, undersupervised, and lacking in up-to-date knowledge and skills. That’s why we use strong human resources management and efficient processes to make sure skilled, motivated health workers are in the right place, at the right time.

Our key approaches include:

• Using health workforce data for stronger recruitment, deployment, and management, and to rationalize health facility staffing
• Using digital health platforms for faster, more effective two-way communications with health workers
• Developing and estimating the costs of evidence-based incentive packages and strategies to retain health workers
• Analyzing data to improve health worker performance and productivity
