N2 - Health system research is crucial for identifying problems and evaluating solutions, ensuring the robustness, safety, effectiveness, and accessibility of health systems. It incorporates people-centred approaches, integrating individual and community perspectives into co-designed interventions. Community engagement in health services promotes equity and sustainability. Several papers focused on strengthening health systems and community engagement during the seventh Annual Research Meeting (ARM) of the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR) at the University of Ghana. Topics included improving child welfare clinic (CWC) attendance beyond immunisation periods, understanding neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), adolescent girls' knowledge of diet and hormonal imbalance, and public engagement activities regarding antimicrobial use (AMU) among rural livestock farmers.
