About CHAI
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We make big changes that challenge what people think is possible to help millions of people stay healthy and live longer.
CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life-saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Today, thanks in part to CHAI’s efforts, over 20 million people in low- and middle-income countries have access to high-quality medicines. Drugs that used to cost US$10,000 per patient per year now cost US$45 per patient per year. See more on our role in the catalyzing the change here.
Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus. Today, along with HIV, we work in conjunction with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, and hepatitis. Our work has also expanded into sexual and reproductive health, cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non-communicable diseases, and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reduce maternal and child mortality, combat chronic malnutrition, and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health, digital health, and health financing. With each new and innovative program, our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, that programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally.
At CHAI, our people are our greatest asset, and none of this work would be possible without their talent, time, dedication and passion for our mission and values. We are a highly diverse team of enthusiastic individuals across 40 countries with a broad range of skillsets and life experiences. CHAI is deeply grounded in the countries we work in, with majority of our staff based in program countries.

- Develop an overarching program performance management framework for portfolio performance management at CHAI.
- Create tools and processes for goal setting, progress-tracking, resource allocation, etc.
