The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to the mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems. 

CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life-saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus. Today, along with HIV, we work in conjunction with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as COVID-19, malaria, tuberculosis, and hepatitis. Our work has also expanded into cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non-communicable diseases, and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reduce maternal and child mortality, combat chronic malnutrition, and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health, digital health, and health financing. With each new and innovative program, our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, that programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally.  

At CHAI, our people are our greatest asset, and none of this work would be possible without their talent, time, dedication and passion for our mission and values. We are a highly diverse team of enthusiastic individuals across 40 countries with a broad range of skillsets and life experiences. CHAI is deeply grounded in the countries we work in, with majority of our staff based in program countries. 

WJCF is an Indian not-for-profit entity, registered under Section 8 of the Indian Companies Act 2013, and has an affiliation agreement with the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI). Our mission is to save lives and improve health outcomes in the country by enabling the government and private sector to strengthen and sustain quality health systems. WJCF has partnered with the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare and state health departments since 2007, providing technical and operational support across key health priorities, including infectious diseases (COVID-19, hepatitis, HIV, TB, vector-borne diseases), non-communicable diseases (cervical cancer, diabetes, sickle cell disease), maternal and child health (anaemia, immunisation, diarrhoea, pneumonia), sexual and reproductive health, health insurance and digital health (AB PM-JAY, ABDM), oxygen and hypoxemia management, safe drinking water, and climate and health.

Program Overview:

The World Health Organization estimated that 10.8 million people fell ill with tuberculosis (TB) in 2023 and ~1.25 million died from it. India accounted for the most people suffering from the disease, with 26% of the cases and 26% of mortality. The National TB Elimination Program (NTEP), headed by the Central TB Division (CTD), MoHFW, is an expansive public health program with the ambitious goal of eliminating TB in line with the mandate of the Sustainable Development Goals.

WJCF has been supporting the CTD and state health departments of more than 15 states in the mission to eliminate TB. WJCF’s TB program has been operational since 2012, and its interventions address several program areas, including preventive therapies, case detection, access to diagnostics, engagement of the private sector, and more. It also lends technical support to Governments across a range of themes- strategic planning, data analytics, monitoring and evaluation, patient management and delivery of services.

About the project:

India continues to bear the world’s highest burden of tuberculosis (TB) in terms of absolute numbers of incident TB cases. National TB prevalence survey (2019-21) revealed a significant 31.3% (estimated) crude prevalence of TB infection (TBI) among India’s population aged 15 years and above.  India has set an ambitious target of eliminating TB ahead of the global target. The National Strategic Plan 2017–2025 outlines TB Preventive Treatment (TPT) as a critical strategy in combating TB, aiming at 95% coverage amongst the eligible population.

The TB Household Contact Management (TB HCM) project is a pioneering initiative addressing critical gaps in coverage and completion of TPT amongst household contacts of notified drug sensitive TB patients, with a special emphasis on children under five (U5). Planned to be implemented in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, this two-year TB HCM project aims to impact over 2 million individuals through a community-based service delivery model that leverages community health workers from the National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP) and general health systems. Marking the first major rollout of TPT while focussing on Universal Health Coverage strategies, the project focuses on decentralising and strengthening TB care within general health systems.
