From 2013 to 2020, EGPAF successfully implemented Project DELTA, providing evidence-informed, comprehensive TA for HIV services for adults and children. EGPAF, ministries of health (MOHs), and partners worked closely with PEPFAR-, CDC-, and Global Fund-supported country teams to identify local TA priorities, designed innovative approaches that effectively addressed key gaps within local contexts, delivered TA, and assessed outcomes. Project DELTA grew from six initial assignments in four countries in 2013 to 37 assignments across 11 countries in sub-Saharan Africa by the end of the project. This report highlights the achievements of this project.

An Unspoken Crisis: Children Are Being Left Behind In 2022, one child died every six seconds. The causes of most of those deaths were preventable. This is unacceptable.
