African Collaborative for Health Financing Solutions
Overview
ACS is a five-year, United States Agency for International Development (USAID)-funded project that supports countries to advance toward universal health coverage (UHC) in sub-Saharan Africa. Led by Results for Development, the project is built on three principles: collaboration, inclusivity and accountability. Duke GHIC is a subcontractor and Duke-Maroglis research team members have been leading research and learning activities.
