Working closely with innovative organizations to make catalytic investments that strengthen health systems for the long term, expanding access to care.

“We see the private sector as a really big contributor to the efficiency agenda, meaning that we think resources that are available for women’s and children’s health can be used together to scale up access to affordable, quality care and achieve better, more sustainable health results.”

Monique Vledder, Practice Manager for the Global Health, Nutrition and Population Unit at the World Bank
