In Kenya, a lack of workplace policies for HIV/AIDS among non-military uniformed service agencies meant that those organizations were unable to effectively provide HIV/AIDS services to affected officers. This, in turn, threatened the government’s ability to provide national security and deliver essential services. From 2008-2013, PATH, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention effectively advocated with key commanders and other decision makers within four agencies to develop and implement workplace HIV/AIDS policies that allowed them to improve their response to officers coping with the impacts of the epidemic.

Diarrhea is a major cause of child death in both Cambodia and Vietnam, but for years, outdated national policies kept medicines from reaching caretakers and children suffering from diarrhea. In response, PATH led efforts in Cambodia and Vietnam to join health advocates together to assemble evidence, identify key health decision makers, and convince the ministries of health to prioritize policy changes to improve access to medicines that could reduce the toll of diarrhea.
