Overview

We support the Government of Madagascar as it works to reduce maternal, infant, and child morbidity and mortality by increasing access to quality integrated health care services and medicines and promoting the adoption of healthy behaviors. Our programs have supported  community health volunteers, helping them gain the skills and tools to raise awareness of healthy behaviors, monitor child growth, provide family planning and counseling services, treat common illnesses, and help respond to infectious disease outbreaks. Our work has helped build leadership, management, and governance skills and enable a culture of quality data collection and use within each district, ensuring harmonization of health data across community and national systems. In collaboration with partners, we are strengthening Madagascar’s health supply chain and increasing cost efficiency while enabling the health system to harness private-sector contributions, including those from retail pharmaceutical outlets.
