Principles of the Africa health workforce investment charter to stimulate sustainable health workforce investments.
Review in Discover health systems, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Despite improvements in health workforce density, the World Health Organization (WHO) African Region Member States an additional 6.1 million additional health workers by 2030 to achieve universal health coverage (UHC) and health sustainable development goals (SDGs) targets and ensure health security. Additional investments are needed for their education, employment, and retention. However, most countries cannot meet this and require support to secure increased sustainable long-term domestic and external investments in the health workforce to strengthen health systems as part of broader health and national development efforts to improve health, economic, and social outcomes. The Africa Health Workforce Investment Charter, launched by the WHO Africa Regional Office in May 2024, outlines a set of key principles that countries can adapt to stimulate and secure the multisectoral domestic and external investments needed to reduce Africa's health workforce shortages by 2030. This would ultimately increase access and availability of health care workers and primary healthcare services, especially in rural and underserved communities. The Investment Charter sets out the following key principles for coordinating and sustaining investments in education, employment, retention, and public health functions: (1) Enabling government leadership and stewardship; (2) Applying evidence-informed prioritisation investment; (3) Aligning multisectoral investments through partnership and collaboration; (4) Stimulating more and better investments; and (5) Securing sustainable health workforce investments.
