Côte d’Ivoire
In Côte d’Ivoire, Breakthrough ACTION is dedicated to fostering the adoption of beneficial health practices and making them normative behaviors across various health areas, including HIV, malaria, and Global Health Security.
Since March 2020, the project has played a pivotal role in the COVID-19 national emergency response, collaborating with the Ivorian government at all levels to enhance systems for disease prevention, detection, response, and treatment. Additionally, Breakthrough ACTION aids in improving service delivery for specific populations, contributing to improved health development outcomes. The project’s activities align with intermediate results focused on implementing high-quality, country-driven social and behavior change interventions and mobilizing coordinated global and country leadership to tackle priority social and behavior change challenges. This multifaceted approach underscores Breakthrough ACTION’s commitment to enhancing public health initiatives in Côte d’Ivoire through strategic partnerships and evidence-based social and behavior change activities.
