Nurse Nozipho Magubane wipes down plastic chairs and sets them up in a bright corridor at Makhaza Mall. She is preparing to open the Jhpiego-supported pop-up COVID-19 vaccination site in Khayelitsha, a poor neighborhood that is one of the least-vaccinated areas in Cape Town. Though the setting looks different from a clinic or hospital, the health standards and vaccination work are as rigorous as in a more traditional health facility.

In partnership with the Malawi Ministry of Health, Jhpiego is helping reduce the vulnerability of girls and young women to HIV by improving access to health services and offering paths to economic empowerment.
