Absenteeism – or the absence of frontline health workers in public sector facilities - is widespread in some countries, leaving patients unable to access vital care when they need it most.

Join Transparency International Global Health for the next webinar in our series in partnership with USAID and the Global Network for Anti-Corruption, Transparency and Accountability in Health as we explore why the issue of absenteeism continues to persist, whether it constitutes corruption and what strategies can be taken to address it.
