Research Findings
RESEARCH FINDINGS
Each PhD thesis focuses on one of six dimensions of health care quality as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO):
- effectiveness;
- safety;
- efficiency;
- access;
- equitability;
- acceptability.
Below we are delighted to present our research findings in form of scientific publications and policy briefs.
