Résumé : | Context: Recent changes in the global health landscape, such as critique on the vertical approach and the shift towards Sustainable Development Goals have put Health System Strengthening (HSS) at the forefront of the global health agenda. If this consensus is likely to facilitate cooperation and coordination, there is a crucial need to understand what HSS entails for actors, especially since 2019 represents a key moment for the French Development Aid in Health (DAH). Objective: This study analyses how the harmonization of the HSS concept for AFD, the Global Fund and Expertise France is likely to foster cooperation and collaboration. Methods: This study is based on literature review and interviews. Literature review was performed to compare strategies on HSS between organizations and congruencies with the conceptions and definitions provided through interviews. Then, 23 semi-structured interviews were conducted with professionals of DAH, aiming at exploring the views and perceptions of the respondents regarding HSS and coordination. Results: Actors present a limited common understanding of HSS; which is coherent with the plurality of strategies developed on HSS. They share a diagnosis of unsatisfactory cooperation and coordination both at headquarter and field level. Several common bottlenecks were identified: the challenge of HSS’s operationalization and the lack of stewardship at various levels. Nevertheless, the actors share the same situation analysis and express willingness to strengthen collaboration, which opens the door to positive changes. Conclusion: Harmonization of the HSS concept for AFD, the Global Fund and Expertise France is likely to be a long-term process, due to their different mandate and modus operandi. To facilitate progress, engagement in stronger dialogue platforms and in concrete examples of cooperation is recommended. Attention should also be brought to coherence among the actors of the French DAH to build a stronger strategic positioning. Eventually, commitment towards the strengthening of the beneficiary states’ capacities and leadership is critical. (R.A.) |
