COMPASS is a collaborative advocacy coalition that brings together country coalitions, global partners, technical experts, and support structures to strengthen community-led action on HIV, TB, SRHR, and health security. Through coordinated advocacy, technical support, learning, and strategic partnerships, COMPASS empowers communities to influence policies, mobilize resources, and drive sustainable change.
Coalitions made up of expert national CSOs actively working on HIV, TB, SRHR and health security from various sectors, including key populations, people living with HIV, AGYW, youth, women’s rights groups and networks. Coalition members collectively make decisions on advocacy campaigns, strategies, approaches and leadership of project implementation.
