Overview The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low- and middle-income countries. CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life‑saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus to include HIV, COVID‑19, malaria, tuberculosis, hepatitis, cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non‑communicable diseases, while accelerating the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reducing maternal and child mortality, combating chronic malnutrition, and increasing access to assistive technology. CHAI’s strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally. CHAI is deeply grounded in the countries it works in, with most staff based in program countries.
