About PCI:

PCI India, a registered Indian society, has been working in India for the past 26 years. We drive interventions to transform the lives of communities at scale by solving complex development problems.

About the Project:

Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) is a neglected tropical disease and there is a proven strategy for elimination of this disease through the administration of effective drug combinations at population level for several years.

Lymphatic Filariasis is endemic in India in 328 districts from 20 states and UTs. Despite a proven strategy, elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis in India continues to be a distant goal as efforts are largely focused on improving service delivery without any significant focus on demand generation.

The proposed project mainly lays focus on demand generation through social mobilization efforts leveraging several existing platforms like State Rural Livelihoods Missions (SRLMs), Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs), Front-Line Workers (FLWs), schools, Civil Society Organization (CSO) networks, etc. The project will focus on increasing demand for drugs and improving compliance at population level through social mobilization.
