Managing for Quality is a collaborative effort
between Management Sciences for Health and UNICEF
to develop a practical, useful, and interactive
resource that managers can use to improve quality
in the many different types of health and family
planning programs in which they work. Managing
for Quality does not offer a fixed prescription
or a magic bullet for improving quality but rather
a collection of concepts, tools, techniques, best
practices, and experiences that can be adapted
and used in diverse settings, or creatively integrated
to support existing quality improvement initiatives.
