Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The government views investment in health as an investment in human capital and long-term economic growth. The support from the World Bank Group and International Finance Corporation utilizes long-tenor, local-currency financing, a model the government said could be replicated. This initiative occurs amid reports that widespread poverty and structural barriers persist in Nigeria.
