Partnering with AMP Health to Increase Access to Healthcare in Africa

Feb 1, 2018 5:20 PM ET

We’re proud to share that we have joined the Aspen Management Partnership for Health (AMP Health) and its network of partners to help strengthen community health systems in Africa by increasing access to quality healthcare. With our support, AMP Health will be able to scale its existing programs in Malawi, Kenya, and Sierra Leone by building the capacity and leadership necessary to set in place critical systems of thousands of community health workers. Pfizer’s previous grant contributions will also be matched this year by the USAID private sector matching funds program, which will allow AMP Health to extend its efforts to additional African nations, including Ghana and Zambia.

A cross-sector coalition of leading global health organizations, AMP Health works with ministries of health to scale up national networks of community health workers to reach vulnerable populations in rural areas. As part of our ongoing commitment to providing quality healthcare to those who need it most, our support of AMP Health, along with that of other cross-sector partners, will enable millions of people living in these regions to receive life-saving services.
