A newly-established not-for-profit organization, Health Awareness Platform (HAP) was started by Edusan Foundation to be an enabler of state-level capacity to diagnose, redesign and strengthen healthcare systems in the state, with linkages to national policy. HTSP’s mission is to achieve the highest level of efficiency and quality in healthcare systems design in India and will provide professional, rigorous and evidence-based support to state institutions. HAP will provide context-specific technical assistance to design health systems that meet public health goals. It will bring in technical expertise and global experience to provide strategic oversight and mentorship, and engage in collaborative research, executive training and cross-learning.
