Zambia

Pact began working in Zambia in 2015 to reduce new HIV infections in the country. Today, we continue to bolster health outcomes across Zambia through critical, far-reaching projects funded by USAID. Learn more below.

Through several USAID and PEPFAR-funded projects, Pact is working in Zambia to improve a range of health outcomes among groups who need it most.

Building on the recently closed Community HIV Prevention Program, which successfully reduced HIV among high-risk groups, we are continuing our HIV programming through DREAMS and ACHIEVE, a global effort to reach and sustain HIV epidemic control among pregnant and breastfeeding women, adolescents, infants and children in key countries. Pact is also part of a global effort to improve maternal, newborn and child health, family planning and reproductive health, including in Zambia.

Pact recently launched the USAID Zambia Integrated Health program. This flagship project is improving health outcomes of Zambians through equitable access to high-quality, client-centered health services in the areas of HIV, TB, maternal, newborn and child health, and family planning and reproductive health, along with the integration of services. We are implementing the project in close partnership with the Zambian Ministry of Health to attain the country’s goal of reaching HIV epidemic control by 2030.

Pact is also working to reduce the pernicious problem of child labor in artisanal and small-scale mining in Zambia, working in Central and Copperbelt provinces.
