Caribbean Centre for Health Systems Research and Development

The ultimate goal of health and social system strengthening is to improve the health and wellbeing of citizens. We assist decision-makers to engage with communities as partners; we conduct forums and dialogues with citizens so that their views can be incorporated in the decision-making process.

CCHSRD has also been working with two Civil Society Organisations to develop proposals for funding:

• Women Working for Social Progress – The Implementation of an Innovative Social Protection Intervention Targeting Boys in T&T: Exploring and Alleviating Problems of Emotional and Physical Abuse

• Mamatoto Resource and Birth Centre – Perinatal Bereavement Care Project that includes a Multi-Component Intervention (sensitisation and training of health care professionals, an outreach programme, dissemination of resource material)
