Ask Health Project

The Project aims to:

  1. To enhance citizens’ civic participation and state accountability for improved governance and public service delivery in Zambia.
  2. To promote transparency and accountability in public finance management and institutional governance systems
  3. To strengthen the capacity of citizens to demand for improved policies and programmes that promote inclusiveness and accessibility to health services

This Project has the main aim of using contained geo-political areas to achieve an intensive informed and systematic demand for public resource accountability by CSO/CBOs and the public which results in improved supply of accountability and improved public services. The Project objectives will be achieved by training and mentoring CSOs and ordinary community members (with targeted inclusion of youth and women) in the rights-based approach to public resource monitoring before facilitating an ongoing dialogue between demand and supply side of accountability that is amplified by innovative use media. Ultimately, the project strategy is to create a cadre of active citizens in a contained area who are then facilitated to carry out a robust and intensive demand for a minimum acceptable standard of service delivery that reflects accountable use of the maximum resources available to the state. The local level advocacy will be amplified at national level by use of media outputs

Ask Health Project is implemented with Support from Action Aid Zambia.
