Complementary and connected: Engaging community and faith-based organisations to deliver PMTCT and pediatric HIV services

“To reach global pediatric HIV targets, efforts must extend beyond clinic doors. Community-based organisations (CBOs), faith-based organisations (FBOs) and places of worship can play a pivotal role in accelerating and expanding services. However, for their contribution to be amplified, they must be engaged as integral implementing partners in service delivery and effectively linked to the health system. A systematic approach is required to formally establish and resource these linkages, as well as embed them in district planning and coordination.” Complementary and connected: Engaging community and faith-based organisations to deliver PMTCT and pediatric HIV services
