Abstract
To base health sector reforms on issues
identified by Ivoirien stakeholders and policy research
carried out by them. In late 1994, a strategic management
retreat of senior Ministry of Health officials initiated a
process of issues identification. A World Bank project
preparation facility advance in 1995 and a grant from the
Government of Japan made it possible for action research to
begin (action research refers to research that facilitates
and is informed by implementation). By late 1995, the
Ministry of Health had completed a full set of over thirty
action research proposals. An International Development
Association (IDA) credit equivalent to $40 million was
approved in June 1996 to support the Cote d'Ivoire
integrated health services development project.
