Obiettivo This project promotes an African process of health policies development based on a top-down and bottom-up complementary approach, through the reinforcement of a network of action researches leaded by National Public Health Schools (PHS). This new project targets 4 countries of West Africa and relies on national PHS. The "Patient Centred Approach" for tuberculosis patients is used as a strategy to integrate patient's and health actors' views in the project. Together with actors working at different levels of health system, each PHS will defineand implement an action research integrating patient and health care provider's perspectives. This action research will be a cross sector and multi-disciplinary intervention to ensure a systemic approach to health cares.Because West African countries usually share same concerns regarding health cares, a regional network of PHS will be established to exchange information with capitalisation of the gained experience within theregion .Finally, evidences generated by the project will be disseminated at national and regional levels to ensuresustainable development for health system functioning.Different activities are planned:1. First seminar: Participant's knowledge will be upgraded and sharing of experiences will be organised. Based on this, each country will define an action research.2. Action research implementation: Team will have 18 months for implementing their intervention with the support of the PHS. A mid-term peer review will be organised to reorientate the action research if needed, in collaboration with all actors involved.3. Restitution seminar: It will be organised to exchange results, to synthesise acquired knowledge and to define diffusion strategies.4.
