The Committee plays a vital role in engaging with stakeholders and relevant partners to collaborate on health sectoral issues by:

• Facilitating quarterly meetings for members and stakeholders in a year;
• As a forum members share information and initiate plans to coordinate policy and advocacy initiatives in the issues of general health of the population including disability and HIV/AIDS;
• Acting as a advisory body to the Government through the National Department of Health and the National Executive Council on these matters deliberated through committee collaborations;
• Monitoring progress of key health recommendations proposed to Government and report on implementation challenges and propose implementing strategies;
• Acting as a information-clearing house for key Government intervention aimed at addressing health and population including disability and the environment and HIV/AIDS;
• Helping stakeholders to understand the bureaucratic processes and the different functions and constraints of agencies. The feedbacks derived from these consultations enable Government to reassess its performance in key priority areas through the use of evidence-based information;
• Identifying key stakeholders for effective partnership and strategic alliance for the effective delivery of health services to everyone.
