| Abstract | ||
| The health sector is continuously undergoing change and structural reforms, resulting from rising demands of care for chronically ill, ageing populations, co-morbidity, fast advancing technology, as well as changes in inter-professional delivery models .These changes and reforms, combined with the current lack of economic growth indicate that the existing structures of health systems and their traditional ways of functioning are no longer viable and cannot meet current and future health demands. This is resulting in the need for more capacity building to address the underlying challenges. Enhanced capacity is believed to promote problem solving, reduce the gap between evidence and practice, and promote healthy gains. It is considered a powerful and cost-effective way of advancing healthcare and development and, if done well, can improve collaboration between high-and low-income countries and address health inequalities. | ||
