Inspired by the DRCLAS Seminar “Was Decentralization a Mistake for Latin America” in November 2022, this seminar is designed to present some recent focused empirical research on how to define types of decentralization and to assess how decentralization contributes to specific outcomes in the health sector. The panelists have experience in specifying characteristics of decentralization in different countries and will present some recent research in Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Honduras using sophisticated methodologies to evaluate outputs and outcomes of different decentralization designs.
