Program Officer, Vaccines

The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems.

CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life‑saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus. Today, along with HIV, we work with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as COVID-19, malaria, tuberculosis, and hepatitis.

Our work has also expanded into cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non‑communicable diseases, and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reduce maternal and child mortality, combat chronic malnutrition, and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health, digital health, and health financing. With each new and innovative program, our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, that programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally.

At CHAI, our people are our greatest asset, and none of this work would be possible without their talent, time, dedication, and passion for our mission and values. We are a highly diverse team of enthusiastic individuals across 40 countries with a broad range of skill sets and life experiences. CHAI is deeply grounded in the countries we work in, with the majority of our staff based in program countries.

Indonesia has the second-highest TB burden globally, with over 1 million new TB cases and more than 100,000 TB deaths recorded in 2024. For the first time in more than 100 years, new TB vaccines are on the horizon, with several candidates in late-stage clinical development. Indonesia is a clinical trial location for a leading TB vaccine candidate, and the Government of Indonesia has demonstrated strong political commitment to TB elimination, including through timely and large-scale introduction of novel TB vaccines when they become available.

As clinical development progresses, parallel efforts are needed to ensure that Indonesia is prepared for timely and effective introduction of novel TB vaccines. Building on its longstanding partnership with the Indonesia Ministry of Health, CHAI aims to support the Government of Indonesia over the next three years to advance implementation of key readiness objectives. CHAI’s support will combine technical assistance and project management across key government priorities, including governance and coordination, demand forecasting, financing and development of a national TB vaccine investment case, health system readiness, and introduction planning.

Through this work, CHAI aims to help ensure that Indonesia is positioned to introduce and scale novel TB vaccines effectively and sustainably once they become available.
