Creating a thriving environment for innovation in public health service delivery

As South Africa’s disease burden grows and pressure on the public fiscus mounts, our healthcare systems must find ways to deliver more and better healthcare under tighter constraints. This demands innovation. In this two-part series, we explore barriers, enablers and pathways to ‘Creating a thriving environment for innovation in public health service delivery’.

In our first brief, we unpack what innovation is, why it is important, and the factors that enable or constrain it.

In our second brief, we explore how we might build and sustain innovation over time so that our systems are ready to regularly receive and test new ideas. In other words, how do we strengthen innovation capacity over time?
