Dear Click4HP,

As part of its larger systems strengthening mandate, the Integrated Family Health Program (IFHP) helped build the capacity of health program administrators and implementers to conduct operations research, with the ultimate goal of fostering local capacity to innovate based on systematic learning. Capacity building was achieved through a skills training initiative designed by IFHP and Addis Ababa University's School of Public Health which convened Regional Health Bureau (RHB) and IFHP staff from across four regions of Ethiopia. As a result, IFHP has initiated staff-led research studies whose findings will inform future implementation. This technical update discusses efforts to date.

Thank you,
