Public health campaigns aim to control disease or deliver essential health services and products through time-limited and periodic channels. Many countries use campaigns to augment or replace routine service delivery, to target certain populations, or to accelerate progress towards coverage targets. The Root Cause Analysis and Rapid Evaluation, Action, and Learning toolkits present a systematic but flexible approach to identifying the root causes of campaign bottlenecks and then designing, testing, and refining solutions to optimize potential impact. These toolkits respond to a growing need for "fit-for-purpose" rapid-testing, adaptive learning approaches to evaluation and the need for a culture shift toward iterative adaptation and improvement that integrates measurement and evidence-informed decision-making into daily practice.The comprehensive package of toolkits, in addition to the individual Root Cause Analysis toolkit and Rapid Evaluation, Action, and Learning toolkit are available below.

Adolescents and Young People aged 10 to 24 bear a disproportionate burden of HIV in Kenya. Those aged 15 to 24 are especially vulnerable, accounting for a third of all new HIV infections and 15% of all HIV-related deaths. Adolescents and young people living with HIV (AYPLHIV) tend to have lower suppression rates compared to adults, often due to lower treatment adherence and other factors such as lack of access to age-appropriate care, provider bias, and self-stigma. In response, Kenya’s National AIDS and STIs Control Programme launched Operation Triple Zero (OTZ). OTZ focuses on empowering both male and female AYPLHIV to commit to the “triple zero outcomes”: zero missed appointments, zero missed doses, and zero viral load. This brief outlines PATH’s OTZ activities and achievements-to-date under the PEPFAR and USAID-funded Afya Ziwani project in western Kenya.
