About Course

The course focuses on the urgent need to engage the private health sector to ensure the efficient and equitable delivery of diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines needed at the country level to effectively tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been carefully designed to empower health ministries with the skills and tools to effectively collaborate and partner with the private health sector. It has been designed to support countries’ response to COVID-19 and it will be equally relevant with regards to the engagement of the private sector for all the health objectives needed to ensure the achievement of Health for All.

The target audience for this course includes the Ministry of Health, policymakers and program managers, WHO staff at regional and country levels, and global health practitioners and researchers supporting COVID-19 efforts (and other health objectives beyond COVID-19) in countries.
