Institute of Public Health, Bengaluru (IPH) is a premier institute for training and research in health systems in India. IPH’s research work in course of its 10-year long history has focused on identifying equity-oriented and health systems based research questions. IPH organizes need-based capacity building programmes and courses implemented either within health services, or through e-learning and blended training approaches based on our perceived need for particular knowledge, skills and attitudes among health workers, health managers, policymakers/decision-makers and other health system actors.
