Who we are

ARETE Global Health Initiative is a non-profit registered in The Gambia (AGHI) and in Nigeria, as the Funmilayo ARETE Charity Healthcare Initiative (FACHI). We give ministries of health, funders and implementing partners the technical support, evaluation and training that stronger health services depend on.

Featured project

Evaluation of demand-side incentives for immunisation

Demand-side incentives are support given to caregivers, rather than to health facilities, to encourage them to bring children for vaccination. Countries use them to close immunisation gaps, but evidence on how well they work, and for whom, is limited.
