    Description
    Panagora Group is a social enterprise dedicated to providing high-quality, high-impact international health, development, and learning consulting.

As a small business, we are able to implement novel and innovative approaches using highly participatory approaches to mobilize community, civil society, and government energy in defining and owning solutions, and to promote inclusive development that benefits all groups.

    Background

    The Technical Support Services (TSS) Activity helps USAID/South Africa and Regional Health Office (RHO) address technical priorities, develop creative, innovative solutions to strategically allocate resources, strengthen connections with partners, and replicate best practices and effective program models.
