The objective of the Ebola Emergency Response Project is to contribute in the short term to the control of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak and the availability of selected essential health services, and mitigate the socio-economic impact of EVD in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. ... See More + This proposed restructuring aims to address the reporting issues with the Results Framework because of the lack of a common understanding among the three countries; and hence has revised the Results Framework appropriately, no change in PDO but greater clarity of indicator statements. Specifically, some of the changes include clarifying the indicator formulation and definition, accordingly revising baseline and end-line values, introducing the new corporate results indicators, and including data sources for PDO-level indicators. The March 2021 end-line targets for most of the intermediate results indicators, as agreed to previously were maintained. The updated results framework with updated progress values is in section four. The current task team encountered significant difficulties in understanding the rationale and targets for some indicators and obtaining data to validate those which were reported during the Ebola outbreak period. Institutional memory on both the clients’ side (particularly in Sierra Leone and Liberia) and Bank side has been substantially lost; and more importantly the institutional arrangements that were established by the individual countries to lead the EVD response, were later disbanded, resulting in a loss of valuable information and data points. Though disbanded in Guinea, the focal person remained on the client side resulting in consistency of data availability. These are important lessons to be learned for the future.  See Less -

The Three-Gap Model examines the determinants of low-quality health care by examining the patterns and determinants of three gaps. Using four measures of performance -- target performance, actual performance, capacity to perform, and knowledge to perform -- this paper defines three gaps for each health worker: the gap between target performance and what they have the knowledge to do (the know gap), the gap between their knowledge and their capacity to perform (the know-can gap), and the gap between their capacity and what they actually do (the can-do gap). ... See More + The paper demonstrates how the patterns of these gaps across health workers in a sample can be used to diagnose failures in the system as well as evaluate the outcomes of policy experiments. Using data on pediatric care from hospitals in Liberia, the paper illustrates how the model can be used to investigate the potential for improvements in the quality of care from several possible policy interventions. The analysis of the relationships between these gaps across health workers in a health system help to paint a better picture of the determinants of performance and can assist policy makers in choosing relevant policies to improve health worker performance.  See Less -
