ACCIH’s approach to improving population health focuses on 6 areas:


VECTOR CONTROL
The sandfly vector (which lives in mounds pictured above) is responsible for leishmaniasis transmission.

HEALTH SYSTEMS
We strengthen health systems through infrastructure development, providing medical supplies, training and advocacy.

CLINICAL
​
At the Chemolingot sub-County Hospital, leishmaniasis patients are triaged, diagnosed and treated.

EPIDEMIOLOGY
​
We identify disease in the community through active case screening and surveillance.

NUTRITION
​
We distribute food during severe famines to address high levels of malnutrition.
