Taking into account the specific health context in Croatia, as well as its pre-accession status, the World Bank is co-funding the Development of Emergency Medical Services and Investment Planning Project (DEMSIPP). The objectives of this Project are twofold: to support the reform of the Emergency Medical System (EMS) in line with European standards, and to provide capacity building to the Ministry of Health (MoH) in developing and managing strategic plans. The Hospital Master Planning (HMP) Project is intended to support the MoH to achieve these two related objectives of the DEMSIPP. When the HMP Project is completed, it will allow the authorities to have a better understanding of the health system in the country, and to develop a strategy for restructuring the current health care provider network towards a system that will better respond to the needs of the population of Croatia.

The global objective of this assignment is to support the ability of the Ministry of Health to make strategic decisions and policies regarding human resources in the health care sector, with the aim of securing a sustainable, quality health care system in Croatia.
The Strategic Plan for Human Resource Development in Health Care should ultimately help achieve a more efficient, equitable and sustainable health care system.

This project aims to improve the performance of Morocco’s health system in quantitative, qualitative and accessibility terms, in particular at the level of basic healthcare by ensuring the availability of a quality health service accessible to the most socially disadvantaged groups. The project focuses on three different pillars: (1) planning and forecasting human resources in the health sector; (2) building the management capacity of the human resource department at central level; (3) Regionalisation of Morocco’s human resource services.

General objective of the assignment:
- Help RAF-VIH to improve the integration of gender issues and key populations into its training courses.
- Support RAF-VIH in the development of a quality assurance approach and accreditation system for French-speaking African training courses in the field of HIV/AIDS.
Main actions:
- Support to integrate the gender approach and key populations into training courses.
- Support with accreditation and the quality approach.

The general objective of the technical assistance was to support the quantitative and qualitative sustainable development of training and the availability of health human resources for the various levels of the health pyramid, health programmes and the health sector management system, which were characterised by the following structural difficulties:
- Shortages;
- An over-used production system unable to overcome the paramedical resource deficit;
- Shortcomings in the educational framework.
The specific objective was to increase INFAS’ capacity to satisfy the health system’s needs in terms of paramedical human resources, in the context of the changes brought about by the establishment of the bachelor-master-doctorate (LMD) system in ECOWAS countries.
