The Global Health Workforce Alliance is a partnership dedicated to identifying and implementing solutions to the health workforce crisis. A shortage of health workers is impairing provision of essential, life-saving interventions such as childhood immunization, safe pregnancy and delivery services for mothers, as well as access to treatment for HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis, chronic disease outbreaks and other health challenges. The GHWFA brings together a variety of actors including national governments, civil society, finance institutions, workers, international agencies, academic institutions and professional associations.
