In response to the USAID Bureau of Global Health and USAID Missions need for rapid access to a wide range of technical assistance and support, PATH (www.path.org) has assembled an exceptional team of exclusive organizations, which includes the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, HLSP, the International Center for Equal Healthcare Access, the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, the International Rescue Committee, the International Training & Education Center on HIV at the University of Washington, and Westat.
PATH and its partners offer services which include:
- Incorporating rigorous monitoring and evaluation (M&E) activities into their work, including building surveillance systems, developing indicators for new issues and interventions, building capacity for participatory monitoring and evaluation, and strengthening comprehensive bilateral projects.
- Responding quickly to diverse technical, functional, and geographical priorities.
- Leading an exceptional combination of nongovernmental, private-sector, academic, small business, and volunteer groups that provide a rich assortment of technical and programmatic expertise.
- Providing an extensive field presence that includes work in all regions of the world.

PATH and its partners bring strong programmatic skills and experience in all TASC3 health areas, including family planning/reproductive health, maternal and neonatal health, child health and survival, HIV/AIDS, infectious disease, health systems, and research. All of the partners have worked extensively to build the capacity of country institutions in the developing world, which in turn has enabled them to develop and maintain relationships with host countries. This team offers USAID comprehensive skills and experience for its Missions and Bureaus, including outstanding management practices that yield results.
As prime awardee, PATH is an international nonprofit organization that creates sustainable, culturally relevant solutions, enabling communities worldwide to break longstanding cycles of poor health.
