With HEP+ support, inter-institutional agreements that pave the way for the transfer of health functions to local health areas were signed on July 18 between Guatemala’s central government ministries and six municipalities. These agreements allow for improved coordination between central and local authorities and support capacity strengthening at the municipal level, empowering local health area directorates and municipal health districts to plan, operate, and monitor newly delegated responsibilities. With this increased monitoring at the local level, authorities can better monitor health outcomes according to the epidemiological profile of each municipality and thus, support the reduction of morbidity and mortality indicators. The newly delegated comprehensive healthcare approach is also anticipated to improve water and sanitation services for communities. HEP+ supported the Presidential Secretariat for Executive Coordination with designing a framework and methodology to collect input from stakeholders at all levels on the competencies to be delegated and provided input on the inter-institutional agreements.
