For more than 4 years, the Global Health Impact Group (GHIG), in collaboration with the International Diagnostics Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (IDC/LSHTM) has partnered with WHO, UNICEF, and other key partners to support the elimination of mother-to-child transmission (EMTCT) of HIV and syphilis through increased advocacy and awareness, tools and resources, country regional workshops to share best practices, webinars and country technical assistance. 

As part of this ongoing effort, GHIG has developed the Triple Elimination Resource Compendium as an open-access forum of practical tools and resources for planning and implementation of services related to EMTCT of HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B, with a particular focus on screening of pregnant women in ANC.


Material Sources

Many of the included materials were shared by countries, implementing partners, and others who have generously volunteered to make them open-access for use by the broader public health community. We would especially like to highlight the contributions of the Uganda MOH, Liberia MOH, and Nigeria MOH.
