Welcome To MSA International

Management Strategies for Africa (MSA) is an indigenous African technical resource in the business of organization development, assisting African institutions and organizations engaged in health development to increase their effectiveness and impact.

Capacity development for social results...

traditional African maskMSA is dedicated to organization effectiveness through institutional, organizational and management capacity building, for African development, focusing on sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and HIV/AIDS organizations. MSA has seen the critical needs in leadership, organization, and management in Africa, and was formed to promote and support the application of sound concepts and practices to strengthen NGOs as well as governmental and private sector organizations engaged in sexual and reproductive health for better performance and outcomes.

Helping health organizations in Africa to become more effective...

MSA focuses on increasing organizational and program effectiveness, impact and sustainability through organizational and management capacity development, with emphasis on: governance and leadership, strategic review and planning, human resource development, management systems strengthening, partnership building, monitoring and evaluation capacity building for learning and knowledge management, and resource mobilization and sustainability planning to assist in accessing new and additional resources.

Organization Effectiveness for improved outputs and outcomes...

"African countries will not develop economically and socially without substantial improvements in the health of their people... The challenge for African countries and their partners is to deliver these to the people who need them, and the best way to do this is to establish well-functioning health systems."

WHO Africa Regional Health Report

To achieve the WHO vision, there must be a phenomenal transformation in institutional behaviours in Africa within the public and private sectors. MSA works to design, disseminate and support application of strategies that are appropriate and sensitive to the circumstances and aspirations of health development organisations, their beneficiary and client groups, and their donors and partners.

"While commending the immense contribution of Northern and other partners, we emphasize the ultimate responsibility of Africans for delivering quality technical assistance to enhance and sustain management effectiveness."

Marc A. Okunnu, Sr., CEO, MSA
