  • The policy thrust in the health system in many developing countries over the last decade has been on reforming structures. This paper examines such reforms in the light of the principles of primary health care that were adopted at the Alma Ata conference in 1978 and which are re-emerging as underpinning the current WHO global policies. It concludes that many of the reforms at best did not strengthen PHC and at worst ran counter to it.
