The Models of Child Health Appraised (MOCHA) project explored both the clinical aspects and wider aspects of primary child health care in Europe from 2015 to 2018. Researchers present their findings regarding such matters as models of primary care and appraisal frameworks, the limited inclusion of children in health and health-related policy, the conundrum of measuring children's primary health care, services and boundary negotiations for children with complex care needs in Europe, workforce and professional education, and national and public cultures as determinants of health policy and production.
