Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that countries supported by the Department for International Development are investing in their healthcare systems through domestic resources.
Strong and resilient health systems that meet essential health care needs for all are central to our health efforts. DFID supports countries to mobilise and allocate more of their own domestic resources for health through international advocacy, multilateral investment and our programmes. We also fund technical assistance to strengthen and implement robust health financing strategies and reforms, helping countries to achieve ‘more money for health and more health for the money’.
