Based in Watertown, Massachusetts, US, Pathfinder International is a non-profit organization that works in 22 countries to advance the sexual and reproductive health and rights of people around the world. Pathfinder International has more than two decades of experience in Nigeria promoting access to quality healthcare through training, advocacy, and systems strengthening. With this award, Pathfinder International is working in communities and health facilities to promote vaccine confidence, improve equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, and strengthening accountability mechanisms for vaccine delivery in the health system in three states. The award contributes to the Foundation’s goal of improving access to resources for immediate COVID-19-related public health challenges while simultaneously advancing new models, policies, and infrastructure for greater public health equity and resilience in the future.
2020 ( 5 months)
$50,000
Pathfinder International is a nonprofit organization that collaborates closely with partners around the world to offer life-saving maternal, newborn, and reproductive health care; integrate health and environmental work to address the holistic needs of communities; and reach the most vulnerable populations, including those who have been displaced due to conflict and natural disaster.
This award supports Pathfinder to address the surge in the number of COVID-19 cases partly connected to the disregard for the safety guidelines from the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), which stems from the belief that COVID-19 is a hoax. The project addresses this challenge by engaging influential religious leaders to educate their communities on COVID-19 and mobilize them to take necessary action to curb the spread of the virus by adhering to health and safety guidelines.
2016 (2 years 3 months)
$700,000
Established in 1957, Pathfinder International champions sexual and reproductive health around the world. This award enables Pathfinder’s India program to implement a project to improve the quality of care for delivery and immediate postpartum care in public health facilities in the state of Madhya Pradesh in India thereby contributing to reducing maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. The project also works to improve the experience of pregnant women and their families who use these facilities for childbirth and related services, and hold the facilities accountable for providing quality respectful maternity care. The project leverages program data and evaluation findings to engage in advocacy at the facility, district, state, and national levels to encourage an enabling environment for improved quality of maternal and newborn care in Madhya Pradesh.

The project is expected to lead to support for implementation of the national task sharing and task shifting policy in states, improved access to essential, lifesaving interventions for women and children, and to contribute to a reduction in maternal mortality in the country.
