"The Sustainable Development Goal 3 seeks to ensure health and well-being for all at every stage of life. This book discusses how to strengthen our healthcare systems and ensure sustainable community healthcare delivery by using systems thinking, an approach to understanding complex interactions of individual system elements in nature. Financing and manpower planning are integral processes to achieve health for all in the world. Adopting the Framework for Action of the World Health Organization for Strengthening Health Systems to Improve Health Outcomes, this book reviews and discusses, illustrated by case examples, the building blocks of healthcare systems, namely financing, human resources, management strategies, and leadership and governance in the context of accessibility, coverage, quality and safety of community health services to achieve selected targets in SDG Goal 3 in the context of global health. This book will be of interest to those who are researching on sustainable healthcare systems, as well as policy makers and healthcare professionals"-- Provided by publisher.
