11 Years of Transforming Health Solutions

about jsi

JSIPL uses its extensive experience of working with hard-to-reach population groups and civil society organizations to provide services that complement the formal health system and help scale-up primary health care services. It supports public health initiatives and health services with local, private and government funds that address priority public health care.

Through various types of grant awards and contracts, partnerships are forged and funds are channelised to manage and deliver public health initiatives for targeted population groups that are in need of services such as immunization, tuberculosis, HIV testing and referrals, maternal and child health, prevention and management of non-communicable diseases, research, nutrition, WASH and digital health, amongst others.
