Award Ensures Long-Term Health Impact in Zambia
-----------------------------------------------
A $25 million award recently granted to Population Services In-
ternational's (PSI) Zambian affiliate, Society for Family Health
(SFH), by the U.S. Agency for International Development will en-
sure affordable health products and services to low-income Zam-
bians for the next six years. SFH's social marketing portfolio
includes campaigns, products and services in all five of PSI's
health areas: HIV/AIDS, malaria, safe water, nutrition and fam-
ily planning. Zambia's successes include the HEART campaign, re-
sponsible for increased use of abstinence among youth; an in-
creased use of oral contraceptives (which contributed to Zam-
bia's declining fertility rate); the world's largest safe water
program using a CDC-developed dilute chlorine solution; and Zam-
bia's first branded stand-alone voluntary counseling and testing
center.
