The Reaching the Poor Policy Brief Series aims to share with a large policy and advocacy audience evaluated examples of health programs and projects that have successfully made health sector spending more progressive.

This Policy Brief Series is produced by the World Bank Institute with financial support from the Government of the Netherlands with the dual objectives of
(i)  sharing evaluated experiences showing that it is possible to tackle inequalities in the health sector in order to
(ii) generate a global dialogue on this often neglected issue.

The  second installment  of  two  briefs  focuses  on  public private partnerships in health provision  from  Cambodia  and  Tanzania, and the third two, on health insurance initiatives  from Colombia and Mexico. Electronic file  versions are available in English, French, Spanish and Russian.
