A Rapid Assessment of Key Areas of the NHSSP for Timor-Leste: Strengths, Chal...HFG Project
Since gaining its independence in 2002, Timor-Leste has made significant strides in rebuilding its political system, physical infrastructure, civil service structure, and health care system. The country has done this with substantial financial and technical donor support. In the health sector, Timor-Leste has created a sound 20-year national health plan, the National Health Sector Strategic Plan (NHSSP) 2011-2030. The NHSSP identifies four health system priorities: 1) Provision of Health Services, 2) Investment in Human Capital, 3) Infrastructure Investment, and 4) Health Management and Administration.
Despite these positive developments, Timor-Leste faces significant challenges: many health indicators are poor – Timor-Leste’s stunting rate is the second highest in the world, and maternal mortality remains staggeringly high across the socio-economic spectrum. It will be important to break the cycle of close birth spacing, high fertility rates, chronic malnutrition, poor human capacity, and poor education. In addition, Timor-Leste has to take the health development agenda increasingly into its own hands, against the backdrop of dwindling donor resources and a contracting oil-dependent economy, which is responsible for up to 80 percent of Timor-Leste’s gross domestic product.
To help inform the future scope of USAID health sector support in Timor-Leste, the agency tasked the Health Finance and Governance (HFG) project with conducting a rapid assessment of Timor-Leste’s progress against the key objectives of the NHSSP, and to identify potential strategic high-impact areas for agency support.

Institutional Arrangement for Health Financing Reform at the State LevelHFG Project
Presented during Day Four of the 2016 Nigeria Health Care Financing Training Workshop. Presented by Dr. Nneka Orji-Achugo. More: https://www.hfgproject.org/hcf-training-nigeria
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare developed the National Health Accounts (NHA) in 2001–02 to support the governance of health systems and enable the design of more effective health policies. This report provides an estimate of the total health expenditure for 2004-05 (taking into consideration the launch of the National Rural Health Mission in 2005), and gives provisional estimates of the health expenditure from 2005-06 to 2008-09.
In the computation of NHA, the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) definition of health expenditure was adopted. NHA includes expenditure on inpatient and outpatient care, hospitals, specialty hospitals, health promotion centres, rehabilitative care centres, capital expenditure on health, medical education, and research and training. It excludes expenses on water supply, sanitation, environmental health and the mid-day meal programme.

India is characterized by modest health indicators, a paucity of medical financing schemes that have reached scale, high per capita out-of-pocket health expenditure, and very low public health spending on low-income citizens. The lack of financing options especially when the population is facing a double burden of disease (frequent communicable and catastrophic lifestyle diseases) leads to poor health outcomes and to poverty traps. Hence, optimal public health financing is important for improving national health outcomes and reducing vulnerability.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
