Partnering for Health
A model for leveraging global businesses to support and strengthen public health systems across Africa.
The southernmost country in Africa, South Africa is home to over 54 million people.
The country has one of the world’s highest HIV positive populations with an estimated 7,4 million people living with HIV. The South African government manages the highest HIV donor-supported program in the world with 3,8 million people on antiretroviral treatments.
Project Last Mile is supporting the National Department of Health through an invitation from USAID to help create an effective dispensing and distribution model to improve availability of life-saving chronic medicines for millions of patients across South Africa.

The resulting framework can be used by others seeking to embark on or strengthen partnerships, consistent with PLM’s aim of inspiring broader private sector engagement.
