The Private Sector Programme in Health – PSP – is a collaborative research programme which started out with a Sida-funded project coordinated by the Division of International Health (IHCAR) at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden and the International Health Systems Program (IHSP), Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, USA. The programme seeks to strengthen health systems' performance and their outcome in terms of improved health by exploring the non-state (private) health sector and how it can be involved in providing adequate health care to the population, in particular those in most need. The programme has been supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) from 2002-2008. The programme has so far engaged eight institutions in China, Vietnam, Laos, India, Uganda and Zambia in the research collaboration.
