Population Services International (PSI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the health of low-income and vulnerable people. PSI promotes products and services through innovative private sector approaches and promotes healthy behavior through targeted communication strategies. Founded in 1970 and based in Washington, D.C., PSI has programs in malaria, reproductive health, child survival and HIV in more than 60 countries.

Since PSI/China was set up in 2003, we have been pioneering social marketing in HIV and malaria prevention programs.

To reduce HIV infection, PSI/China implements its programs with highly vulnerable groups, primarily Female Sex Workers (FSWs) and Injecting Drug Users (IDUs) in Yunnan and Guangxi provinces, where the prevalence of HIV ranks high in the country.

In 2007, PSI/China launched a malaria prevention project in the most affected areas of Yunnan to reduce the occurrence of malaria.
