About the Project: REACH Bangladesh

REACH Bangladesh — Integrated Molecular Diagnostics, Laboratory Systems Strengthening, Emergency Preparedness, and Integrated Laboratory Response Systems — is funded by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Global Health Security and Diplomacy (GHSD), and implemented by PATH. The award is a fixed amount award issued under the America First Global Health Strategy to ensure continuity of lifesaving health assistance and to support integrated, country-led health systems programming, with an anticipated implementation period of approximately 10–12 months.

Coverage spans 30 districts across seven geographic clusters, alongside national and divisional coordination.

The project is organized around three strategic priority areas: (1) integrated molecular diagnostics and laboratory network strengthening; (2) laboratory quality, biosafety and workforce excellence; and (3) emergency preparedness and laboratory resilience — each delivered
