CHAI works with several governments to identify their health workforce needs and to then increase the capacity of educational institutions to train the right kind of workers to meet those needs – from midwives and nurses to health managers, doctors, and medical specialists. We help establish international academic partnerships to supply the specialized educators required to immediately train new generations of qualified local health instructors who can sustain programs into the future. At the same time, we increasingly work with governments to improve spending efficiencies so the expanding workforce can be absorbed into the health system and existing funding can be best utilized. We also work with governments to improve overall management of the workforce through targeted analyses and systems improvements to strengthen strategic planning, health worker retention, deployment, in-service training, and other key functions.
