Health system strengthening has been at the core of WHO’s collaboration with Libya over the past years. The Libyan transitional government has recognized health system strengthening as key element for improving the health status and well-being of the Libyan people.

Priorities to strengthen the health system in Libya have been identified in a national strategic consultation process led by the Ministry of Planning. It included immediate actions to restore disrupted services.

The consultation process has identified the challenges faced by Libyan health sector and established strategic objectives, which include establishment of priorities for immediate action to restore the disrupted services, and for the longer term re-engineering of the health system.
