How best can we take on the urgent and long-term healthcare needs of our countries? By learning together! HITAP, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Access and Delivery Partnership (ADP) present you a three-part webinar series where, from across different contexts, we will look at the application of evidence in an intervention’s life cycle: from identification and prioritization, to procurement and price negotiation, and, finally, to implementation and monitoring and evaluation.
