Our Approach for Operationalizing and Sustaining Systems Thinking for Health .
Technical Brief | November 7, 2024
Operationalizing systems thinking can drive and sustain positive health system changes while building greater resilience.
Promising evidence demonstrates that systems thinking can achieve positive, holistic health system change and improve health outcomes. However, the uptake and continued application of systems thinking for health (ST4H) by system actors has been nominal. Its potential remains untapped. Drawing on our experiences supporting health system actors such as national policymakers, subnational planners and managers, researchers, health workers, local organizations, and civil society, this technical brief presents an approach for applying systems thinking that considers real-world barriers and opportunities.
