Where We Work / Suriname


Beginning in 2006, the Capacity Project worked to improve the capacity of the health workforce by introducing the HRH Action Framework (HAF), and helped to bring the HAF to several countries, including Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Chile, Bolivia and Belize. The Project worked with the Caribbean HIV/AIDS Regional Training Network (CHART) to develop and implement a rapid training needs assessment (RNA) for use in the regional training centers located throughout the Caribbean. The Project’s work also included technical assistance for Caribbean countries to help effectively manage their Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFTAM) grants. These GFATM grants are performance-based grants and require management systems that many Caribbean organizations have not yet developed.

Selected activities included:

  • Creating and implementing a Health Economics course, focusing on the HRH economics for the top 36 leaders and managers in the Peru Ministry of Health
  • Providing technical assistance to the Caribbean Regional Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS to manage its regional GFTAM grant
  • Strengthening the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) capacities of nine ministries and civil society organizations to enable them to report into the national M&E system more effectively
  • Providing technical assistance to the CHART Regional Coordinating Unit to enable its staff to conduct RNAs.
