At IHSC, our research is intricately tied to addressing current policy challenges. Through rigorous priority-setting, we align research topics with the needs of policymakers and health systems decision-makers. Our commitment to evidence-based policymaking involves continuous engagement with officials throughout studies, ensuring relevance and impact.

Policy engagement goes beyond the government, involving stakeholders throughout the health systems community. IHSC engages in a mentor-mentee program, fostering knowledge exchange and producing policy briefs for evidence-based policymaking. Our hosted events bring together policymakers, researchers, and local partners, serving as collaborative platforms to advance health systems through research, encouraging significant discussions and sharing of knowledge.
