Prioritised health spending has the potential to save lives . GFATM needs to engage with national health priorities and plans. By using their health systems strengthening to support priority setting, they can support effect and sustainable funding. So why not?
"While explicit priority-setting approaches are being expanded globally to support resource allocation decisions in health more generally, evidence from our study suggests that their use in the three GFATM-supported programmes was limited." @AnnaVassall @just_nonvignon bmjpublichealth.bmj.com/cont…

Tragic failure of global health policies #UHC
Less than 5% of women in low-income and middle-income countries are ever screened for cervical cancer, hampering elimination goals. @jzarocostas reports on renewed calls to scale-up cervical cancer screening: hubs.li/Q02mT1KT0
