The sustainability of public health programs following donor transition: A comparative case study of HIV services and maternal and newborn care in Uganda

2026Open accessMakerere University

Abstract

Our analysis suggests that variations in sustainability outcomes cross the two focus projects stem from differences in donor aid delivery mechanisms, transition processes and domestic political priorities. Our study suggests that donor transition is not a 'one size fits all' phenomenon regarding health programs, which has implications for planning for donor transition in Uganda and similar settings.
