 April
22, 2004 – Washington DC, USA.- The GDLN Health
Program continued its “Improving Bank Business”
series by holding an interactive session which connected
the Washington DC based Project Managers with the El Salvador
based Project Implementation Unit (PIU). In addition,
regional experts based in Bolivia and Ecuador were also
connected to this session who shared their input and reflections
on the project with their El Salvador colleagues. The
purpose of the meeting was to conduct an evaluation on
the El Salvador Reconstruction and Health Services Extension
Project, thus supporting the evaluation phase of the project
cycle.
Through the Improving Bank Business Series, GDLN will
be made available as a supporting tool for the Project
Cycle which can help to reduce project costs, increase
supervision, and balance work/life demands. As part
of the Program, GDLN will support the complete project
cycle in all phases: Identification - Preparation -
Initial Evaluation - Negotiations - Implementation and
Supervision - Evaluation.
The GDLN Health Approach will also feature a LAC MDG
Policy Dialogues Series, the Milestone Dialogues Series
featuring innovative contributions in the field of public
health, and the Open Offering series made possible through
external partnerships with sector-focused organizations.
The GDLN Health Approach has been jointly developed
by the World Bank’s Latin America and the Caribbean
(LAC) Health Unit and the GDLN LAC coordinating team.
