PSI is a network of locally rooted, globally connected organizations working to transform health, together.

In Ethiopia's Oromia and Somali regions, PSI Ethiopia is working alongside the Mastercard Foundation, government institutions, and local partners through the Step Up to Dignified and Fulfilling Work Program.

As the program moves beyond its inception phase, partners are focused on connecting young women to skills, enterprise opportunities, and financial inclusion.

By creating pathways to dignified work, the goal is simple: support young women in earning sustainable incomes on their own terms, while recognizing their everyday realities and responsibilities.

Every person deserves the chance to live a healthy life.

We know progress happens when people have the power, tools, and choice to make informed decisions about their health. That’s why we focus on expanding self-care options, strengthening neighborhood clinics and pharmacies, and removing the barriers that stand between communities and quality care.

As leaders gather at the World Health Summit to discuss turning innovation into equitable health systems, our focus remains on the everyday reality: making sure those breakthroughs reach the people we work alongside, every single day.

A decade ago, PSI set out to answer a critical question: What happens when you design health solutions with adolescent girls, rather than just for them? That question became Adolescents 360.

Since then, we've seen that when health systems listen to girls and learn alongside them, care adapts to their everyday realities and real change follows. But moving from community insights to lasting systems change takes partnership at every level.

To reflect on the journey and look ahead, A360 is bringing together youth leaders, country teams, governments, and global funders. The discussion will explore lessons from a decade of co-design and how to embed youth-friendly sexual and reproductive health care into national health systems for the long term.

Today, your phone can answer almost anything. But for millions of people, answers about their own health remain out of reach.

To help close this gap, PSI is partnering with governments across Africa to bring accurate, personalized health information directly into people's hands. Health chatbots and AI-enabled digital companions give people a private space to ask sensitive health questions and find trusted information and support on their terms.

How do we know when the right technology, applied in the right context, meets the needs of the people we serve?

PSI's Head of Digital Monitoring, Wycliffe Waweru, breaks down why digital health innovation must be grounded in local context and how we partner with governments and health systems to translate technology into measurable health outcomes.

Nearly 2 in 3 people living with hepatitis C globally don’t know their status. Stigma, distance and structural barriers still stand between too many people and access to testing.

As World Health Organization (WHO) and Population Services International (PSI) partner to advance the next generation of integrated health services, emerging evidence is helping shape how countries can expand access to testing and connect more people to care.

Our first webinar session draws on Unitaid-supported, multi-country implementation research to explore:

▪️Evidence on the feasibility, acceptability and reach of hepatitis C self-testing

▪️Lessons for integrating and scaling self-testing within national hepatitis elimination efforts

▪️What’s needed to strengthen linkage to care and reach underserved populations

How are testing and service delivery evolving across HIV, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and tuberculosis (TB)?

World Health Organization (WHO) and PSI are partnering with country leaders to advance the next generation of integrated health services.

Building on Test, Adapt, Deliver, the series brings together global guidance and country experience, with conversations on self-testing, quality systems, AI and digital technologies.

What does the future of digital health look like? It looks like putting more power in people’s hands so they can understand and manage their health over a lifetime.

At the Africa Health Tech Summit, the conversation is moving beyond isolated tools toward systems that support lifelong wellness. By pairing technology and AI with compassionate care, people get private, accurate health information on their terms, while health workers gain the timely insights they need to deliver earlier, more responsive care.

When people have the information, choices and support they need, they have more agency over the decisions that shape their health at every stage of life.

This , we’re celebrating what happens when women have more choice and agency over their health and futures.

Maria, a teacher and mom of three, chose self-injectable contraception, trading quarterly clinic trips for a single annual visit and leaving her with more time for her family, her friends and her work.

PSI’s DISC project works alongside governments, providers and communities to expand access to self-injection. Together, we’ve delivered more than 4 million self-injection visits across nine countries.
