30
Years for Better Health Systems

Curatio International Foundation (CIF) is a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization with a mission to improve health through better functioning health systems. CIF’s work is underpinned by three core values: Hearing Needs, Building on Local Strength; and Delivering Innovative Context-specific Solutions.

Our work is based on network of national and international professionals and researchers to bridge the gap between what is known about the problems at hand and what has to be done in order to solve them. Our work intends at improving functionality health care systems and adequacy of and health policies.

Curatio International Foundation Today

Today we work not only locally and regionally, but increasingly at the international level.

Since March 2015 CIF hosts the Secretariat of the first international organization dedicated to strengthening health systems–Health Systems Global (HSG).

We look forward to reaching the goal of better health for all, through the support of our partners, donors, and the whole community.

Our Expertise

Health Systems Research

CIF undertakes rigorous, high quality research contributing to policy in low- and middle-income countries. Using evidence-based data and recommendations at the national, sub-national and regional level, we contribute to the efficiency and sustainability of health systems.

Policy Work

We supply decision makers with research results that enable them to use efficient and evidence- informed approaches when reforming health systems, allocating resources, improving functionality, or assessing policies.

Transition and Sustainability

CIF assesses the transition from donor-funded programs into local or national policy by analyzing factors impacting the program’s results. This permits us and our local partners to identify strategic and operational solutions to assure program sustainability.

Program evaluation

We evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of donor funded programs, highlighting successes and best practices. We identify key challenges and lessons learned, thus helping donors improve the design and performance of future projects.

Health Systems Strengthening

We reinforce health systems through innovative approaches to health financing, raising the standards of health information systems and strengthening governance at sub-national and
national levels.
