The Woman’s Condom has been evaluated for acceptability, performance, and safety in clinical studies across five countries since 2004. This document provides summaries of the key studies implemented during development and validation of the Woman’s Condom as a new method for dual protection.

This document describes a quality assurance (QA) program for Ov16 rapid tests that can be implemented by onchocerciasis control and elimination programs to help ensure high-quality testing and to identify areas for improvement and change. Designed for policymakers and program planners wishing to implement Ov16 rapid testing, these guidelines describe some important basic principles and the main practical aspects of a QA program.

Zambia has made significant progress in improving the health of its women and children. However, many still lack access to basic care. In 2015, PATH conducted an assessment of global initiatives, national policies, and decision-making factors influencing the delivery, accessibility, and availability of 13 basic cost-effective reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health commodities.

A report presenting the results of a stakeholder analysis conducted in Zambia by the PATH Malaria Control and Elimination Partnership in Africa (MACEPA) in partnership with the Zambia Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Zambia Ministry of Community Development, Mother and Child Health (MCDMCH) and in support of Zambia’s National Malaria Control Program (NMCP). The analysis assessed the perceptions and prioritization of key stakeholders in malaria policy and implementation decision-making around readiness to introduce and scale new tools and approaches to accelerate efforts toward elimination. The analysis also assessed perceptions around what respondents felt was needed to accelerate progress toward national targets and opportunities and barriers to increasing the prominence of malaria on the national health agenda. The results from this first analysis serve as a baseline for future reports, analyses, and projects. The analysis findings are intended to inform policies and program strategies to accelerate progress toward the reduction and elimination of the malaria burden in Zambia.
