Mapping National Health Research Systems in the Eastern Mediterranean

A ten country study

A joint project of Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office of the WHO, COHRED and the Gulf Cooperation Council

This partnership was formed in 2005 to strengthen the capacities of health research systems in the Eastern Mediterranean region. To inform these efforts a National Health Research System (NHRS) Mapping study was done with partners from ten countries in the region. It was a priority for all partners to have rapid and actionable results from this work.

The study identified gaps in NHRS governance and management in a number of participating countries. Many are now acting on the findings of the study. The full results have been published in the Eastern Mediterranean Health Journal.
