Organization Description:
Population Action International (PAI) advocates for women and families to have access to contraception in order to improve their health, reduce poverty and protect their environment. We work with local and national leaders in developing countries to improve their reproductive health care programs and policies. Our TB work happens through The Integration Partnership (TIP), a 2-year project to increase country demand for RMNCH-ATM integrated services. Through TIP, we work with local civil society organizations that advocate for TB-MNCH integration. Our partners in country target the Global Fund as well as US government mechanisms to raise the issue of TB-MNCH integration and why it is critical to control TB.
