About Resolve to Save Lives
Resolve to Save Lives (RTSL) is a global health organization that partners locally and globally to create and scale solutions to the world’s deadliest health threats. Millions of people die from preventable health threats. We collaborate to close the gap between proven, life-saving solutions and the people who need them. Since 2017, we’ve worked with governments and other partners in more than 60 countries to save millions of lives. We work toward a future where people live longer, healthier lives, communities flourish, and economies thrive.
About the Program
Resolve to Save Lives' Prevent Epidemics program works closely with Ministries of Health and national public health institutes in Africa to strengthen epidemic preparedness capacity, accelerate disease detection and response, and effectively use data to inform action. In addition to direct partnerships with governments, we also work with implementing partners, including the US CDC, the World Health Organization, the World Bank, and the Global Health Advocacy Incubator, to implement programs, prototype innovations, and ensure sustainability through increased national ownership, including domestic budget allocations.
About the Team
Our Leadership, Governance and Financing team (LGF) helps build leadership and management capacities, fostering public health institutional strengthening. We also support countries to improve access to and use of sustainable financing for multisectoral preparedness. Through leadership, systems thinking, and change management approaches, we help partners work collaboratively, leverage political commitment, and use resources effectively to support data-driven decision-making. We strengthen the institutional foundations that enable NPHIs to operate as high-reliability organizations, including leadership, governance, sustainable financing, partnerships, and the administrative systems needed to translate strategy into action. In countries such as Zambia, Nigeria, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, we tailor our support to country context through embedded technical support, co-design with government teams, and strategy.
