Our Strategic plan

Strategic planning has been the process by which IPROSARUDE officials have developed the general objectives, policies and strategies that will facilitate the acquisition, use and allocation of ressources. Faced with an ever-changing environment and capacities, IPROSARUDE adopted a process of updating its 2017-2020 strategic plan, which allowed it to re-analyze the organization’s vision and mission, its fundamental values, its key objectives, its areas of specialization, its strengths and weaknesses, its opportunities and threats, its activities and, in addition its short-and medium-term subjects or areas of decision making.

In this way, IPROSARUDE intends to better align itself with this logic of contribution to health for all, with an emphasis on rural health, by updating its strategic plan.
