The USAID Adolescents and Children HIV Incidence Reduction, Empowerment and Virus Elimination project, or ACHIEVE, is a global effort to reach and sustain HIV epidemic control among pregnant and breastfeeding women, adolescents, infants and children. During the course of the project, Pact and partners have implemented the ACHIEVE project in nearly a dozen countries. With funding from USAID, the project is implemented by a Pact-led consortium of global HIV/AIDS partners, including Jhpiego, Palladium, No Means No Worldwide and WI-HER. These core partners are being supported by a network of global and local strategic resource partners.
OUR WORK
The ACHIEVE consortium works with USAID Missions, national governments and existing response partners to identify gaps in HIV prevention and treatment programming among target populations. Using best practices and expertise along with innovations, the project is addressing critical gaps to meet country-specific epidemic control goals.
As part of its strategy, ACHIEVE is working to prevent and respond to gender-based violence and to empower youth to own their futures. To ensure that the consortium’s efforts are sustainable, ACHIEVE is developing the capacity of local organizations to directly receive USAID funding in line with PEPFAR’s 70/30 localization goal and USAID’s Journey to Self-Reliance.
By optimizing the response to pediatric AIDS toward epidemic control in some of the highest burden areas around the world, ACHIEVE is making a marked, lasting difference in the global fight against HIV and AIDS.
Additionally, ACHIEVE manages OVCSupport.org, a resource database focused on improving the lives of orphans and vulnerable children by connecting the global community and providing the most up-to-date information on HIV and other adversities. Visit OVCSupport.org for the latest technical news, information and events from the ACHIEVE project.
