• Project Background

The Tuvalu Health System Strengthening Project (THSSP). A World Bank–funded national initiative to strengthen the foundations of Tuvalu’s health system. It focuses on improving governance, planning and financial management, upgrading facilities, equipment and supply chains, and building the health workforce. The project also strengthens disease surveillance, infection prevention and emergency preparedness to ensure more reliable, resilient health services for the population.

The Pacific Healthy Islands Transformation Project (PHIT) is a World Bank–funded regional program to transform primary health care across Pacific Island countries; the Tuvalu component concentrates on making frontline services more integrated, person‑centered and data‑driven. Key elements include upgrading digital health and HMIS tools, improving clinical quality and supervision, scaling prevention and management of priority conditions (e.g., NCDs, immunization), and strengthening local management and regional coordination with partners such as UNICEF. Together with THSSP, PHIT aims to improve service delivery and health outcomes in Tuvalu.

The Coordinator will advise and report regularly on project progress and results, ensure smooth delivery of all activities, and is directly accountable to the Secretary, of the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MOHSW).
