“Health Policy and Systems Research: A Methodology Reader”
First Reader on Health Policy and Systems Research published

This Reader aims to provide a basis of understanding, ideas and
experience to strengthen the quality of health policy and systems
research (HPSR). It includes a collection of papers that demonstrate
the application of different strategies and methods and guidance on
the defining features and offers critical steps in conducting health
policy and systems research.

The publication was edited by Lucy Gilson of the University of Cape
Town and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and published
by the Alliance for Health Policy and Systems Research.

Professor Anne Mills, one of the leading experts in this field states:
“Health policy and systems research is a rapidly developing and
critically important field of health research, but has lacked any
coherent presentation of its nature, scope and methods. This Reader
remedies this gap, and will be an indispensable source of guidance
for anyone conducting health policy and systems research or wishing
to learn about it."

The target audience for the Reader includes researchers, teachers and
students, as well as those working within health systems, and
particularly those working in low-and middle-income countries.

The Reader is available electronically on the Alliance web site:
http://www.who.int/alliance-hpsr/resources/reader.

Limited editions of printed copies for teaching and training
institutions in low- and middle-income countries are available upon
request from the Alliance Secretariat. ([log in to unmask])
