CapacityPlus End-of-Project Event

CapacityPlus held its end-of-project event at the Hilton Hotel/Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia, on September 17, 2015.

The agenda featured opening and closing panels on human resources for health (HRH) investments and future priorities; a project overview from CapacityPlus project director, Kate Tulenko; a video about comprehensive HRH strengthening in Uganda; a storytelling session placing the project’s work in the context of the challenges faced by an individual health worker; a marketplace with demos of project tools and approaches; and two rounds of interactive breakout sessions in which participants learned more in-depth about CapacityPlus’s country-level results and lessons learned.

The USAID-funded flagship health workforce project, CapacityPlus supported 26 countries to achieve health goals and strengthen delivery of services through information systems, education, training, retention, productivity, leadership, and human resources management.

CapacityPlus was led by IntraHealth International, with partners Abt Associates, IMA World Health, Liverpool Associates in Tropical Health, and Training Resources Group, Inc.
