Decentralisation has been adopted by many governments to strengthen national systems, including the health system. Decision space is used to describe the decision-making power devolved to local government. Human Resource Management (HRM) is a challenging area that District Health Management Teams (DHMT) need some control over to develop innovative ways of improving health services.

This poster/abstract summarises a study which aims to examine the use of DHMTs’ reported decision space for HRM functions in Uganda. It was presented by Wesam Mansour at the 2021 ISQua conference.
