• Descripción:

Health and healthcare are major concern areas that draw intense citizen attention and government throughout Libya. The ongoing conflict is causing an increase in health needs for ordinary Libyans and military personnel. To address rising healthcare problems such as the increasing pressures on the sustainability of health systems, new and more effective health policies are needed. These have to be guided by the best available data, research, and evidence on good practices, effectiveness, and efficiency of systems of healthcare and prevention. Up-to-date and high-quality health data are required to evaluate policies and interventions for their outcomes, costs, and priority-setting, to determine public health system performances and to provide timely monitoring of trends in health. Universities and Academic hospitals are the most suitable environment to elaborate, discuss, implement and finally achieve these goals. Therefore, the SAHA project is intended to upgrade the quality of existing courses and enhance its relevance for the labour market and society by (1) introducing new courses on Health Economics and Healthcare management and creating centers for health data management in the Libyan HEIs; (2) setting up and managing academic centres for collecting medical data; and (3) by creating an advisory multi stakeholder committee for defining policy recommendations at for local, regional, national and international stakeholders and decision-makers. According these objectives the wider aims of the project is to reinforce education in response to today’s main challenges of Libya (peace enforcing, healthcare access for Libyan civilian and military population; public health, employment and economic growth), especially within the field of healthcare services, which are the ones that employ the highest number of people and are able to produce, faster than by any other means, social equity, wealth redistribution and the full exercise of a social right (the Health).
