PROJECTS

Preventing Global Health Disasters Worldwide

Through USAID LEAP Global, Global Solutions Ventures embedded local experts into national health programs.

Context

USAID was expanding its global health services, specifically focusing on infectious diseases, by building national leadership and capacity of USAID-supported countries.

The purpose of LEAP Global was to support the advancement of national infectious disease programs in low- and middle-income USAID-supported countries by embedding technical assistance and subject matter experts into national programs.

Approach

Global Solutions Ventures (GSV) is a professional services joint venture comprised of ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis Consulting Group with a broad base of experience managing projects across a diverse array of contexts and difficult operative environments. Together as GSV, these firms bring over 25 years of experience in providing U.S. Government clients with institutional support staffing services in both international and US-based settings.

GSV recruited, onboarded, and supported high quality technical advisors in multiple USAID-supported countries. GSV prioritized hiring technical advisors and subject matter experts who were nationals from respective host or neighboring countries.
