Inhalt The course is divided into two main components:
(1) An introduction to the performance framework of health systems and main elements of this framework
(2) Case studies on the main elements of the performance framework:
- Organization and provision of services, resource planning, allocation and decentralization
- Health policy, governance and priority setting
- Health information and evidence for decision-making
- Human resources for health
- Financing and payment of health services

We will apply the performance framework of health systems and the main conceptual elements of this framework such as governance, human resources, financing, technologies and health information from a systems thinking perspective. Students will be able to critically review and apply the framework to contemporary health systems and policy issues and will be able to review, analyse and compare experiences in health system strengthening and health system interventions in countries in Africa, Asia and Europe with a systems thinking optic. Critical elements for health systems performance such as governance, information or human resources will be related to the performance and expected outcomes of health systems.
Lernziele The participants should at the end of the course:
- Understand the importance of health systems and health systems research in achieving public health goals and in epidemiology
- Have acquainted the performance framework of health systems and main conceptual elements of this framework
- Be able to critically review and apply the performance framework for current health policy issues in low- and high-income countries, such as universal coverage
