In 2020, PRONTO partnered with Save the Children on Kulawa, a five-year USAID award to improve health, family planning, and nutrition outcomes in the Maradi, Zinder, and Tillaberi regions of Niger, supported by the Government of Niger. PRONTO’s role in the Kulawa project will target strengthening the capacity of local healthcare providers and improve quality of care through.
