Strategic Advisory · Health Systems · Governance · International Development
Evidence-led, locally-rooted consultancy for health systems and public institutions.
Avicenna Consulting International (ACIL) is a Pakistani consulting practice working in health systems strengthening, governance reform, policy development, and social sector programme management, with clients across the region and beyond.
Strategic positioning
International development is in the middle of a shift: away from vertical, disease-specific programming and toward integrated, resilient health systems; away from input-based monitoring and toward measuring actual results and impact; away from externally-driven agendas and toward solutions that are locally led and country-owned. ACIL sits right at that intersection.
UHC & Health Systems Strengthening
Years of practice designing and evaluating HSS investments aligned to WHO frameworks, SDG 3, and country-level UHC roadmaps.
Global Health Security & IHR
Direct, hands-on engagement with International Health Regulations compliance, AMR action plans, and pandemic preparedness work at WHO EMRO and national levels.
Governance & Public Finance
Health sector governance reform, procurement system redesign, PPRA compliance, budget and expenditure analysis, and fiscal gap assessments.
Localisation Agenda
As a Pakistan-registered, Pakistan-led firm, ACIL doesn't just reference the localisation principles championed by global leaders — we operate that way by default.
Gender & Inclusion
Gender, disability, and social inclusion lenses built into programme design, M&E frameworks, and community engagement from the outset, not added on afterward.
Digital Health & Data Systems
Health information systems, data quality assessments, and turning dense datasets into policy recommendations people can actually use.
