FINANCING ALLIANCE FOR HEALTH OVERVIEW
The Financing Alliance for Health (FAH) is an Africa-based, African-led, and Africa-focused entity that convenes governments, funders, philanthropy, private-sector, and communities to address systemic financing challenges to scaling primary and community health systems for delivery of integrated primary healthcare services through country, regional and global partnerships.
As trusted strategic and technical advisors, FAH acts as a bridge between the world of health and finance through long-term partnering with the Ministries of Health and Ministries of Finance teams to develop different and changing financing sources. This approach will empower/ enable them to be the lead stewards in their local health systems to reach the scale and sustainability that is needed and ultimately achieve universal health coverage.
Headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, FAH has successfully supported 18 governments at the national and sub-national levels, across 13 countries (Rwanda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Haiti, Burkina Faso, Uganda, Sierra Leone, Liberia, South Africa, Malawi, Senegal, Kenya, and Togo).
FAH works with governments in their journey of designing, scaling, and financing of primary and community health programs, with a view to strengthening national and regional health systems through embedding teams, evidence generation, designing financing solutions, and advocacy. Our longer goal is to scale up and strengthen Primary and Community Health Systems to in-crease access and utilization of reproductive, maternal newborn, child & adolescent child ser-vices at primary facilities and community levels. We act as a bridge between the worlds of health and finance.
