Reaching millions with the world’s most effective health interventions.
About us
Global impact starts with asking the right questions: How far can a dollar go to improve a person’s health? How can we learn if our strategies are working? How can we ensure that they will continue to work? At Evidence Action, we leverage rigorous research and iterate constantly to scale low-cost health interventions at life’s most critical stages, including pregnancy, infancy, childhood, and adolescence. We always follow the data to ensure maximum value for every dollar and maximum impact for every individual. Our programs have reached over 515 million people by pairing proven interventions with creative new implementation models tailored to local contexts. As we mark our 10-year anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to expanding access, improving cost-effectiveness, and utilizing evidence to inform every decision.

Last year we laid out our goals for 2024. Now, we are reflecting back on how we measured up -- what we accomplished AND what we didn't. Read our year in review to see how we did on an ambitious safe water project, scaling HPV vaccine to girls to fight cervical cancer, providing prenatal vitamins to pregnant women, expanding our school-based health programs, navigating the frontier of disease control for parasitic worms, and the global climate health agenda. https://lnkd.in/eaX5BTSU

In Liberia, Syphilis-Free Start partners with the Ministry of Health to expand the use of dual HIV/syphilis tests in antenatal care (ANC) settings and treat women who are positive. Congenital syphilis causes more stillbirths and infant deaths than HIV – but it is easy and inexpensive to screen and treat. In just two years, we have prevented 2,300 adverse outcomes for infants and saved 1,300 newborn lives.

There is tremendous potential to save lives and improve health through underfunded interventions. Evidence Action's programs demonstrate that investing in the most effective interventions leads to transformative impact. We prioritize interventions based on impact, scale, cost-effectiveness, and feasibility – a process that filters out all but the most promising solutions. Unfortunately, some of the highest impact interventions remain underfunded. Learn more about the overlooked hidden gems that are ready to scale: https://lnkd.in/eZBY4XXY

What happens to safe water access when a cyclone strikes? After Cyclone Freddy hit Malawi, displaced communities no longer had safe drinking water sources. Evidence Action worked with the government to expand our chlorine dispenser network to ensure those affected by the cyclone had access to safe water. This story shows how chlorine treatment is a key adaptation to protect public health as climate patterns change.
