Systems Integration

Systems Integration  Core Banner

Technical workforce skills and evidence-based strategies are not necessarily sufficient to move the needle on maternal and child health outcomes; contextual factors such as challenging political environments, lack of leadership support, funding insufficiency, staff turnover, and historical programs and outcomes can also influence Title V’s ability to have an impact.

Systems thinking and mapping tools provide opportunities to see your work in the context of the ‘big picture’ and strengthen collaboration within agencies and across sectors.

Systems Thinking and Mapping Tools

These are just two of the systems thinking and mapping tools that we teach to Title V teams to support their work:

System Support Mapping in Five Minutes
Type: Video (2023)
Group Model Building (GMB) Overview
