13 CA-3-A030833003 2025-03-04T06:33:31 Prevention and Control of Communicable Diseases The Prevention and Control of Priority Communicable Diseases (PCPCD) project is being implemented by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) in collaboration with the Ministries of Health of Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela. This project contributes to the prevention and control of communicable diseases that cause the greatest burden of morbidity and mortality among children, youth, and adults in South America. In children, the diseases that frequently affect their health are diarrhoeal disease and acute respiratory infections. In youth and adults, these diseases are sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS, Chagas disease, and tuberculosis. The project also strengthens the capacity of institutions responsible for planning, managing, and delivering sustainable and comprehensive programs for the prevention and control of the most prevalent communicable diseases. The first stage of this project with PAHO has already been completed. The total value of the two stages together is $10 million.

In Ecuador, 8,300 professionals were trained in clinical, community and neonatal IMCI; the IMCI strategy was implemented in 2,000 health establishments; 4,211 health professionals, health promoters, professors, students and community members also received education and training to help prevent Chagas disease, a potentially life-threatening illness caused by a parasite and spread by insects. In Paraguay, information on Chagas disease and dengue, an infectious tropical disease caused by a virus, was incorporated in science curriculum in schools; and over 800 health professionals were trained in prevention and care for sexually transmitted infections. The project contributed to passing a law that ensured that all pregnant women and their partners received free testing and treatment for syphilis. This law helped to improve capacity to diagnose syphilis among pregnant women by 87%, and the capacity to treat syphilis by 82%. In Peru, an agreement was signed by the Ministry of Health, the Pan American Health Organization and mayors of 25 districts in three departments to include funding for Chagas in their municipal development plans for health promotion, and disease prevention and control activities; and 911 people (681 women and 230 men) participated in training to help them integrate gender equality in health activities.
