HPA currently implements programmes in 15 countries throughout Africa, Asia and Latin America. Priority is given to the most excluded and vulnerable, in particular underserved and remote communities, to build knowledge and skills that will enable them to improve their own health and to gain continuing access to effective health services and information. HPA has been operational in Viet Nam since 2016 and is currently implementing projects related to malaria control and elimination funded by the Global Fund to Fight Tuberculosis, AIDS and Malaria (GFTAM). The current GFTAM project is being implemented in four target provinces in collaboration with the National Institute of Malariology, Parasitology, and Entomology (NIMPE), academic and local NGO partners.
