Zambia DISCOVER-Health Project (USAID)

The USAID DISCOVER-Health Project aims to improve the lives of Zambians by providing them with better access to quality health care. The Project contributes towards HIV epidemic control in Zambia, while also providing integrated reproductive health and family planning, and maternal and child health services and products. In 2022, the project was expanded to support the Government of the Republic of Zambia’s (GRZ) efforts to address the global COVID-19 epidemic, including accelerating the national rollout and scale-up of COVID-19 vaccination.

Funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by JSI, USAID DISCOVER-Health partners with GRZ to deliver assistance directly through a national network of outreach clinics and sites. The Project takes integrated health services to underserved communities, which are often in the poorest and remotest parts of the country.

• Initiate 141,400+ people living with HIV on ART
