I was honored to represent Tanzania Health Summit at the Quality Partners Forum hosted by SafeCare under PharmAccess in Nairobi. Engaging in deep discussions on “Transforming Quality Service Delivery at Scale through Public-Private Partnerships”, moderated by Prof. Khama Rogo, left me with a clear conviction that Quality is cheaper, but poor quality is expensive. Key takeaways; 1. Quality is not a project; it’s an everyday practice, built into each system block and adapted to our unique contexts. 2. Access and quality are inseparable. It’s not enough to offer access; we must ensure it’s to quality care. 3. Quality of care is “Utu” – humanity in action. We interrogated ourselves questions that pushed us to dig deep: Where does quality truly reside? Who owns it? Is quality too costly? These reflections remind us that shifting the narrative means empowering “Wananchi” to demand quality, because that’s where true change begins. Tanzania Health Summit, quality of care is at our core agenda. It’s about creating sustainable systems that serve our people with integrity and humanity.
