Namibia

In Namibia, Pact has helped local organizations and government agencies to build their capacity to tackle the country’s most pressing challenges. Today, we are working in partnership with local communities to prevent and respond to HIV. Find out more below.

With funding from USAID, Pact has helped Namibia to make marked strides in its fight against HIV and AIDS, mainly by strengthening Namibian institutions that provide HIV services and helping various local responders to coordinate their efforts.

Pact's work in Namibia dates to 2006, when we began building the capacity of Namibian government ministries and community-based organizations. With Pact's help, local organizations have strengthened their planning, budgeting and managerial capacity – all of which are helping them to make lasting improvements in people's lives.

Currently, Pact is working to reach and sustain HIV epidemic control among pregnant and breastfeeding women, adolescents, infants and children in Namibia. The ACHIEVE project is a five-year, USAID-funded global effort that is implemented by a Pact-led consortium of top global HIV/AIDS partners. ACHIEVE focuses on priority PEPFAR countries across Africa, Southeast Asia and the Caribbean. Learn more about ACHIEVE.
