It includes recommendations on how to improve each domain in line with goals and objectives outlined in The Gambia National Health Sector Strategic Plan 2014-2020.

Finally, it assesses whether governance structures in The Gambia serve the articulated national goals for improvement in The Gambia healthcare system.
