Neftaly: Strengthening Health System Capacity for Effective Service Delivery
At Neftaly (South African Youth Project), we understand that a robust health system relies on strong foundations of monitoring and evaluation (M&E), procurement and supply management (PSM), public financial management (PFM), and programme management. Strengthening these core capacities is critical for ensuring efficient, transparent, and sustainable health service delivery that meets community needs.
Our initiative focuses on building the technical, operational, and institutional capacity of health systems to improve performance, accountability, and resource utilization across all levels of healthcare.
Program Objectives
- Enhance the capacity of health system stakeholders to collect, analyze, and use data for informed decision-making.
- Strengthen procurement and supply chain systems to ensure the availability of essential medicines and health commodities.
- Improve public financial management practices for transparent and accountable use of resources.
- Build programme management skills to support effective planning, implementation, and evaluation of health interventions.
