Project Information

Project Name:Rail Link
Project Description:
CARE is the prime contractor for this four-country (Mali, Senegal, Burkina Faso, and Cote d'Ivoire) project
aimed at preventing HIV transmission among migrants and in the communities along West African railroads. This
integrated approach is the first significant effort to combat HIV/AIDS along West Africa's railroads. Through activities
including social marketing, clinical support, and ''local response'' community mobilization, CARE and its partners
provide an integrated HIV/AIDS prevention program aimed at major transportation networks that had been neglected
by other sub-regional programs. CARE's partners in this program are Family Health International (FHI), Population
Services International (PSI), the railroad companies, and the national HIV/AIDS prevention coordinating committees
(CNLS).
