Summary of publication

This document reviews the Australia-supported Tonga Health Systems Support Program after six months' operation. The review found that despite early delays, implementation was satisfactory across four key strategies: legislative and fiscal measures; behaviour change communication; non-communicable disease primary/community care; and diabetes centre and diabetes outreach.

The document reviews progress on implementation, financial management and procurement, gender equity and disability inclusion, and monitoring and evaluation, and makes 77 recommendations for the program going forward.
