Description:

The challenges inherent in planning, developing and supporting a sustainable health care workforce are all the more difficult in countries where conflict or the aftermath of conflict can impede the implementation of short- and long-term approaches to building human resources for health (HRH). Based on field experiences implementing programs in such situations and supplemented by a carefully targeted literature review, this resource paper explores operational challenges, opportunities and goals common to initiating HRH programs in conflict and post-conflict situations.
