The Country Connector for Public & Private Sector in Health (CCPSH) is a World Health Organization–convened initiative that helps countries strengthen health systems by improving governance, partnerships, and engagement between public and private sectors. It supports universal health coverage, health security, and system resilience.
The CCPSH provides a global platform for sharing experiences, setting norms, and offering guidance on mixed health system governance. Its goal is to better align private sector contributions with national health priorities, accelerate progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC), and improve equity and health outcomes.
The initiative is led by the World Health Organization and supported by national, regional, and global partners, including governments, NGOs, and technical experts.
CCPSH operates through three main streams:
  • Knowledge Hub – curating evidence, tools, courses, and webinars
  • Country Support – providing technical assistance and capacity building
  • Sharing Experiences – fostering partnerships, dialogues, and technical working groups
Countries can submit requests via the “Contact Us” page. Requests are reviewed for alignment with national needs, and support is co-designed with in-country stakeholders.
