Spanish term or phrase: Acciones institucionales (ver contexto)
El párrafo completo es : "Con la propuesta se quiere mejorar el impacto de las acciones institucionales, ofreciendo servicios integrales de salud a través de tratamientos y terapia de enfermedades de origen neurológico y deficiencias físicas por lesiones violentas y victimas por la crisis del conflicto armado como son los niños, mujeres, jóvenes y tercera edad."

Dado lo vago de la expresión "acciones institucionales", ¿se os ocurre alguna forma de decirlo en inglés, evitando al mismo tiempo esa vaguedad?.
No puedo preguntar al autor/-a del artículo.

Muchas gracias

Explanation:
Si fuera una compañía, utilizaría acciones corporativas. Pero por el contexto entiendo que se trata de alguna organización médica. Aunque fuera una corporación médica, al tratarse de temas de salud queda mejor usar la palabra "institucional" por cuestiones de imagen.
