| Zusammenfassung: | The performance of community health workers (CHWs) in Swaziland has not yet been studied despite the existence of a large national CHW program in the country.

Specifically, focusing on four CHW programs, we aimed to determine what potential changes to their program CHWs and CHW program managers perceive as likely leading to improved performance of the CHW cadre. |
