Allison Gamble Kelley
In June 2009, MLI country lead Allison Gamble Kelley traveled to Mali to work with the newly constituted MLI technical team, and to carry out a leadership assessment and work planning exercise. The team includes professionals from the Planning and Statistics Unit, the National Health Directorate, the National Social Development Directorate, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Health’s Directorate of Finance, FENASCOM (civil society), the Ministry of Women’s and Children’s Affairs, and UTM (technical assistance body for mutuelles). There was great enthusiasm for the MLI approach to analyzing and developing leadership capacity while tackling the challenges of equitable financing.
Even though I have worked in Sierra Leone in the past, the role of MLI Country Lead has given me the opportunity to build upon these previous experiences and to work closely with members of the Ministry of Health and Sanitation (MOHS), to support the implementation of health policies and reforms that they have prioritized.
