Project Summary:
The Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (EpiC) project is a global health initiative funded by the United States Department of State (DOS) for the period of 2019–2027. The project delivers high-quality technical support at the community, health facility, district, regional and national levels, and builds relationships with relevant partners working to address integrated health programs and global health security issues. Our ability to respond quickly to program, technical and procurement needs leverages on our deep bench of country-based clinical, program, and community experts. Initially focused on achieving and sustaining HIV epidemic control, EpiC was expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic to support countries in preparedness, response, and health system strengthening, including oxygen systems.
In Nigeria, EpiC is supporting the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (FMoH/SW) to strengthen the national Oxygen Ecosystem. Our contributions include optimizing pulse oximetry, expanding access to medical oxygen through LOX infrastructure, enhancing healthcare worker capacity on oxygen data management, and supporting the development of a national Quality Assurance and Compliance (QAQC) guideline for oxygen equipment.
The project received additional Global Health Security (GHS) funding to strengthen national, regional, and local public health systems, building on broad experience and existing capabilities that align with GHS priorities and National Action Plans for Health Security (NAPHS) and US Government goals to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and strengthen health systems for Emerging Infectious Diseases.
In addition, EpiC Nigeria has recently received funding to build a more effective, resilient, and responsive primary healthcare system that can respond and address the persistent and severe public-health challenges, especially in Maternal, Newborn, Child, and Adolescent health (MNCH), Malaria, and Nutrition.
