TIMCI is a Unitaid-funded initiative led by PATH, in partnership with the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute and local research partners in India (Uttar Pradesh), Kenya, Senegal, and Tanzania. Between 2019 and 2024, the TIMCI project worked in collaboration with the country governments to improve access to affordable and appropriate tools to help health care providers identify and manage children who are severely ill.
