Creating a learning community of PHC stakeholders
PHCPI promoted cross-country collaborative learning among policymakers, practitioners, and advocates related to PHC measurement and improvement.
Connecting with others working to leverage, maintain, and strengthen primary health care.
Strong primary health care (PHC) provided a critical first line of defense as countries grappled with COVID-19. Around the world, policymakers, practitioners, and advocates continue to work to maintain PHC as a comprehensive, coordinated, person-centered resource for people and communities, and to strengthen PHC to better respond to future epidemics and other crises.
Between 2020-2022, PHCPI in collaboration with the Joint Learning Network for Universal Health Coverage (JLN) created a Community of Practice to promote cross-country learning and sharing of best practices among a community of policymakers and practitioners with the goal of strengthening public health and primary health care (PHC).
Over the course of two years, the COP facilitated a Learning Exchange in three phases: a Collaborative Problem-Solving phase (Oct 2020 – March 2021), and two Implementation Learning phases (June 2021 – January 2022; March – November 2022).
