Challenges to the performance of the regional health departments in Mauritania: a qualitative study

This study identified the main gaps in the performance of the Brakna and Nouakchott-North RDHAs. The scale of these challenges does not allow them to engage and mobilise the right stakeholders and appropriate resources to achieve their objectives. We propose to initiate organisational change at the RDHA level. Some actions are discussed.

Abstract

This study identified the main gaps in the performance of the Brakna and Nouakchott-North RDHAs. The scale of these challenges does not allow them to engage and mobilise the right stakeholders and appropriate resources to achieve their objectives. We propose to initiate organisational change at the RDHA level. Some actions are discussed.
