Description
Summary:The Health Sector Recovery Program ( HSRP ) - 1996-2003 -- was the first Bank-assisted project in Mozambique to move towards a sector-wide approach. Its objective was to support the Mozambican National Health Strategy, that is, the improvement of the health status of the population, in general, and a decrease in infant and child mortality in particular. The HSRP helped bring together the Ministry of Health and 16 other donors to support one coherent strategy. This Note describes the impact of the project on the ground and lists lessons learned.
