The Health Systems Assessment Approach: A How-To Manual (HSAA) was first published in 2007 by USAID and has been used in more than 30 countries. This webinar, hosted by the Community-centered Health Systems Strengthening Working Group, will introduce Version 3.0 of the publication.
Presentation and discussion will revolve around – What’s new? What is the HSAA method and how does it add value? How and where has the HSAA been used? How can the HSAA address community health?
