The Child Survival and Health Network Program
On February 3, 2005, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded the CORE Group a five-year cooperative agreement to manage the Child Survival and Health Network Program (CSH Network Program).
The purpose of the CSH Network Program is to strengthen private voluntary organization/ nongovernmental organization (PVO/NGO) capacity in child survival and health programs through collaboration and cross-learning and to enhance technical resources, strategies and exchanges of member organizations and their local partners in infant, maternal and child health, nutrition, family planning, HIV/AIDS and infectious diseases.
The CSH Network Program was awarded through the USAID Child Survival and Health Grants Program (CSHGP) located in the USAID Bureau for Global Health, Office of Health, Infectious Diseases and Nutrition.
