About us

Jhpiego is a nonprofit global leader in the creation and delivery of transformative health care solutions for the developing world. In partnership with national governments, health experts and local communities, we build health providers’ skills, and develop systems that save lives now and guarantee healthier futures for women and their families. Our aim is revolutionizing health care for the planet’s most disadvantaged people. Jhpiego, a Johns Hopkins University Affiliate, translates decades of program experience and in-depth technical knowledge into moments of care that can mean the difference between life and death for women and families. The moment a woman gives birth; the moment a midwife helps a newborn to breath; the moment a nurse screens for cervical cancer with a simple vinegar swab; the moment a community health worker tests a man for HIV and reports he is HIV free. By embedding the know-how and skills into everyday practice, we are able to increase access to quality health services and create a healthier future for generations to come. Access to lifesaving health care for all people, whoever they are, wherever they live, that’s our mission. Jhpiego saves lives, improves health, transforms futures.

    Since June, more than 805 people have died in catastrophic floods across Pakistan. Entire communities have been displaced, with over 210,000 people in Punjab evacuated in the past few days alone, as rivers reach dangerously high levels. With more severe weather expected, urgent action is needed. Jhpiego teams are mobilizing 50,000 relief kits with food rations, safe water, hygiene supplies, and first aid.

    This week #UNFPA,@Jhpiego, @OOAS, and a diverse group of health partners came together for a vital cause: saving mothers’ lives. Our focus was on highlighting the essential role of midwives in PPH prevention and management using the latest global recommendations to dramatically reduce this leading cause of maternal death. I leave inspired, hopeful, and energized by colleagues at the forefront of this effort. They are on the front lines managing PPH in the hardest to reach areas. They are the advocates fighting to apply evidence to change national policy, ensuring every midwife gets what she needs to provide high quality, comprehensive delivery care. And they are the creative and innovative minds thinking ahead to what we might need next to continue to reduce PPH and maternal deaths.     At Jhpiego, we look forward to continuing to collaborate with this consortium of partners and are committed to working together to accelerate the reduction of maternal mortality.   #MaternalHealth #Safebirth #SRHR #Ewene #Midwives

    At the World Health Organization African Region Committee meeting in Zambia, Jhpiego joined leaders from Ghana, Tanzania, WHO-AFRO, and partners for a crucial breast cancer-focused side event highlighting the BEAT Breast Cancer project. As Dr. Somesh Kumar, Jhpiego’s Senior Director on Innovations, noted: “This gathering marks a pivotal moment to accelerate action for breast cancer prevention in Africa. We deeply value the leadership of the Ministries of Health of Ghana and Tanzania, and the steadfast support of the Pfizer Foundation in helping us achieve this milestone.” Through BEAT Breast Cancer, we’re advancing WHO’s 60-60-80 targets: ✔ 60% of invasive breast cancers diagnosed and treated early ✔ Diagnosis within 60 days of presentation ✔ 80% of women completing treatment This is a key moment to prioritize women’s cancers in health systems and ensure more women survive and thrive.
