HOPE-GOV

HOPE-GOV is a PforR (hybrid) and is one of a series of three interconnected and complementary Programs strategically positioned to address different challenges, but all geared towards helping achieve the same set of ultimate outcomes. While the other two – HOPE-Primary Healthcare (HOPE PHC) and HOPE-Basic Education (HOPE-BED) will focus on the quantity and quality of services delivered at the facility level, HOPE-Governance (HOPE-GOV) focuses on the critical crosscutting challenges and enabling factors related to both financial and human resource management.
