About YRG MERF
Established in 1993, YRGMERF is a
leading non-governmental organisation in India dedicated to improving health
outcomes through integrated healthcare, inclusive partnerships, and
research-driven interventions. Guided by the principles of integrity and
sustainability, the organisation addresses both immediate and emerging public health challenges, with a strong focus on prevention, care, support, and treatment—particularly in the area of HIV and other infectious diseases.
In India, the TIFA project aims to
strengthen national health security through coordinated action across
government systems and community stakeholders. This approach is designed to build a resilient ecosystem capable of detecting,
preventing, and responding to emerging infectious disease threats.
As part of this initiative, a
decentralised community-based surveillance model will be implemented, aligned
with the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC)’s Integrated Health Information Platform (IHIP) and the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) framework. The model enables community platforms such as Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and Mahila Arogya Samitis (MAS) to identify and report early warning signals using IHIP tools, thereby strengthening community ownership, improving early detection, and enabling timely public
health response.
