PATH is a global nonprofit dedicated to achieving health equity. With more than 40 years of experience forging multisector partnerships and with expertise in science, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, PATH develops and scales up innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing heath challenges.

 

PATH is a part of the Rotary Healthy Communities Challenge (RHCC) grant in four countries: DR Congo, Mozambique, Nigeria and Zambia. RHCC, funded jointly by The Rotary Foundation, World Vision and The Gates Foundation, is a multi-year effort to improve access to quality community health care for malaria and other priority diseases. In DR Congo, RHCC will support 1,000 Community Care Sites (CCS) in fourteen (14) health zones in Kasai Province. Attached to those CCS, a total of 2,000 community health workers (CHWs) will be trained, equipped, and deployed to diagnose, treat, and refer per Ministry of Health (MOH) guidelines for malaria, diarrhea and pneumonia at community level. PATH will provide technical assistance in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, in particular the National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) and National Program for the Elimination of Cholera and the Control of Other Diarrheal Diseases (PNECHOL), and the partners comprising the RHCC Country Committee for DRC. PATH support will include integrated community case management (iCCM) trainings; data collection, management and reporting; monitoring and evaluation efforts; and data analytics on priorities identified by MOH.
