Jhpiego is an international, non-profit health organization affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University. For 50 years and in over 155 countries, Jhpiego has worked to prevent the needless deaths of women and their families.

Jhpiego leads the Reaching Impact Saturation and Epidemic Control (RISE) project; a multi-country project funded by the U.S. Government to save lives and improve health through integrated, evidence-based approaches to address urgent gaps in lifesaving services. RISE works across all levels of the health system to strengthen the HIV/TB epidemic response, to limit the spread of deadly disease outbreaks through Global Health Security (GHS) programming, and to reduce preventable morbidity and mortality through integrated maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH), nutrition, tuberculosis (TB), and malaria services. RISE supports country governments to strengthen essential data systems, supply chain and commodity management, human resources for health, domestic resource mobilization, and other cross-cutting health system functions to accelerate transition to country ownership and self-reliance.

In Angola, RISE supports the Government of the Republic of Angola (GRA) in its efforts to end HIV/AIDS as a public health threat by 2030. This will be achieved by strengthening the public health system and making measurable progress toward targets across all ages and populations. The project supports the implementation of high-quality, life-saving community-based HIV service delivery, system strengthening and transition towards sustainable integrated programming.
