Project Background
Partners In Health (PIH) is an international health organization relentlessly committed to improving the health of the poor and marginalized. PIH partners with local governments to build local capacity and works closely with impoverished communities to deliver high-quality health care, address the root causes of illness, train providers, advance research, and advocate for global policy change.
The organization originally developed as a community health project in Haiti in the 1980s and has since expanded to several countries around the world, including Mexico. Since 2011, Compañeros En Salud (CES), Partners In Health in Mexico, has operated as a non-governmental organization that collaborates with the local Ministry of Health to strengthen healthcare delivery. Over the last decade, CES has developed and implemented numerous healthcare delivery innovations with remarkable outcomes.
Definition of Opportunity
The primary objective of this project is to create a comprehensive inventory of healthcare delivery innovations implemented by CES in Mexico. The inventory will not only highlight CES's achievements but also provide a global context by identifying and comparing similar innovations worldwide. To achieve this, the project will involve a meticulous scope review, thorough publication analysis, interviews with knowledgeable CES personnel, and contextualization with global examples.
Definition of Success
Success for this project entails producing a comprehensive report that showcases CES’ healthcare delivery innovations in an organized manner. The report will vividly describe each healthcare innovation, outlining its key implementation elements, highlighting the significant outcomes achieved, and offering insightful global comparisons. The document will be a valuable resource that not only demonstrates CES's contributions to healthcare delivery but also serves as a source of inspiration and learning for donors, local organizations, and government officials in Mexico. This success will be measured by the report's ability to effectively communicate CES's innovative approaches, engage stakeholders, and foster meaningful collaborations toward advancing healthcare practices and outcomes within Mexico's healthcare landscape.
