Background
Primary Care International (PCI) was launched in 2014 as a non-profit social enterprise. Our mission is to strengthen primary healthcare systems globally, empowering individuals to access quality healthcare to live full and healthy lives. We specialise in developing practical, evidence-based solutions to improve the quality of frontline care.
PCI has been awarded a grant by GIZ to support the Ministry of Health (MoH) in Libya as part of the ‘Strengthening Health Systems and Pandemic Response in Libya’ (SHSPR) project. This project is commissioned by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and is being implemented between December 2023 and November 2024 in five municipalities: Tripoli Center, Sabha, Jadu, Benghazi, and Shahat.
The project consists of three phases:
- Phase 1: Completed in July 2024, involved baseline assessments and strategy development.
- Phase 2: Currently underway (August–October 2024), focusing on developing training materials.
- Phase 3: Set to take place from November 2024 to February 2025, focusing on delivering workshops and supporting cascade training for health managers.
