Centre for Health Systems in Fragile and Conflict Affected Setting

The KIT Centre for Health Systems in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Settings brings together the interdisciplinary work of over 50 experts in global health. Through applied research, evaluation services, and capacity development, we aim to empower people, strengthen health systems, and improve universal access to quality healthcare in regions affected by violence and precarious governance, where basic goods and services are highly limited.

We consider the contextual complexity of these fragile settings – starting from an in-depth understanding of the root causes of the challenges – and focus on strengthening domestic or local institutions and actors that can drive change.
