9:00 - 10:30 am EDT | 3:00 - 4:30 pm Mozambique | 4:00 - 5:30 pm Kenya
As health sector financial decision making moves to the sub-national level in countries like Mozambique and Kenya, strong public financial management is essential to ensure efficiency, transparency, and accountability. Strong information systems, digital solutions, and strengthened capacity at the local are essential elements for increasing resources and allocating them efficiently to expand and strengthen health service delivery.
This webinar will discuss the state of the art in public financial management and its role in the global effort to advance universal health coverage, explore recent advances to strengthen public financial management in Kenya and Mozambique, and provide a forum for discussion of current challenges and opportunities for innovation at sub-national levels.
