In the Dominican Republic, Pact is working to reach and sustain HIV epidemic control among key groups. This effort began under the ACHIEVE project and is continuing under the USAID-funded Building Resilience project, which is reducing barriers to HIV prevention and service delivery for Haitian migrants and descendants and their children.
In the realm of governance, Pact and our partners are advancing holistic citizen security in the Dominican Republic by strengthening local civil society organizations and civic leaders, as well as media outlets and journalists, and improving the legal and policy framework for supporting crime and violence prevention. Pact is leading this effort in collaboration with our CSM-STAND consortium partners IREX, MAKAIA and ICNL, with a vision of transitioning technical leadership to a small cohort of local organizations.
