The International Division provides technical
assistance designed to enhance the effectiveness
and quality of public health programs.
JSI is committed to promoting positive
social and economic change to improve
the quality of life in developing countries.
By working in partnership with local groups,
from government ministries to community-based
organizations, we apply appropriate management,
public health, social service, and medical
technology to practical service delivery
systems and administrative problems.
Since 1978, JSI's International Division
has collaborated with donor agencies,
local governments, private sector firms,
non-governmental and private voluntary
organizations to carry out long-term multinational
and country specific projects and a wide
variety of short-term projects.

100 professionals, most with advanced
degrees in medicine, public health, management,
economics, public policy, or education
