The aim of this report was to “come up with recommendations on how further efficiency gains can be made within the overall health architecture”.
This was a largely desk-based piece of work which used four main methodologies: a study of the financing of the global health aid architecture; analysis of 29 recent evaluations of aspects of health aid architecture; five brief country reviews (Ethiopia, India, Nigeria, Pakistan and Tanzania); and peer assessment by presenting the arguments to “think-tank” audiences.
