• Understand, post-facto, how grant support can lift levers in specific cases towards UHC or not, in some cases and why.
• Develop a historical or qualitative study on how political momentum (policy influence and changes towards UHC initiatives) is created in a multi-pronged approach.
• Generate and document lessons from RF’s investment in Bangladesh towards UHC.
• Contribute to the field on the Bangladesh experience in raising momentum for UHC as the SDG’s are being shaped which will include UHC as a health goal.
