The study focuses on how to better monitor progress and use information to identify problems and improve health outcomes within and among different African countries. Good information about inputs, processes and results in the health sector is vital for policymakers to make intelligent choices about health strategies and investments, and often is simply not available. The report covers countries that are classified as lowest-income, low-income and middle-income categories. Indicates that over three quarters of the African countries are low income or even lowest income countries, and nearly all have weak health management systems.
