The CORE Group Partners Project (CGPP) is a United States Department of State-funded, multi-country, multi-partner initiative that provides on-the-ground technical assistance and guidance to support host country efforts to eradicate polio, strengthen immunization systems, enhance disease surveillance, and increase access to essential health services.
