  • The Changemakers of Health Care Delivery ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT 2019
    The Changemakers of Health Care Delivery ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT 2019 Mission VillageReach transforms health care to reach everyone. Photo Credit: Henry Sempangi Sanyulye A Message from the President to You Almost twenty years ago, VillageReach was founded to make sure that vaccines reached every rural health center in northern Mozambique. From that original demonstration work, a movement was born. In 2019, in collaboration with partners across the globe, our solutions have improved access to health care for 43 million people across 10 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Transforming health care delivery and systems for the most under-reached requires tremendous collaboration, collective action and partnerships. As I look back at 2019, one thing is clear - behind every success and every solution, there are changemakers. Changemakers champion transformative change in health care delivery in their communities. They work tirelessly every day to advocate for a world where each person has the health care needed to thrive. Today, we highlight some of the incredible milestones of 2019, and the changemakers who influenced them. • Malawi: The handover of Chipatala cha pa Foni – or Health Center by Phone – to the Ministry of Health and Population represents a major milestone for the commitment to Universal Health Coverage in Malawi. In this report, you will meet Patience Tchwonge, a changemaker whose contributions helped make this possible. • Mozambique: In Zambézia province, health centers would often run low on medicines and supplies. By partnering with the private sector, we made tremendous progress in supporting the government’s vision of a reliable, integrated supply chain that reaches every health center in 2019.

  • Opportunities at the Last Mile 2018 ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT
    Opportunities at the Last Mile 2018 ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT Our Mission Save lives and improve health by increasing access to quality healthcare for the most underserved communities. Photo Credit: Paul Joseph Brown When I came to VillageReach in 2010, I joined a small global team of 15 people, based in Malawi, Mozambique and the United States, who shared a vision of improving health care delivery in rural From the communities. At that point, it was impossible for me to foresee where we would be eight years later — with a network of nearly 200 professionals working in 10 countries to replicate and scale the President work we started many years ago. VillageReach’s past success comes from the passion and tenacity of our staff and partners and the commitment from the Ministries of Health in the countries in which we work. I am proud of our accomplishments in 2018. In our three primary countries — Malawi, Mozambique and the Democratic Republic of Congo — we have surpassed many of our expectations. • In the Democratic Republic of Congo, I visited health centers in Équateur with the Honorable Health Minister Oly Ilunga Kalenga to observe supply chain improvements firsthand. Frequent stockouts of vaccines had prevented children from gaining immunity from diseases such as measles. An independent evaluation revealed there were no stockouts of vaccines in VillageReach-supported health zones in 2018. Just months after the visit, the Ministry of Health responded to an Ebola outbreak. To assist, VillageReach employed the last mile delivery system to an additional four affected health zones. • In Malawi, we celebrated the move of Chipatala cha pa Foni (CCPF), or “Health Center by Phone,” from its original home in Balaka to the Ministry of Health and Population’s Clinical Services unit in Lilongwe.

  • Prospects for Leveraging Private Sector Logistics Firms to Support Rural Access to Healthcare: Some Insights from Mozambique
    PROSPECTS FOR LEVERAGING PRIVATE SECTOR LOGISTICS FIRMS TO SUPPORT RURAL ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE: SOME INSIGHTS FROM MOZAMBIQUE J Beale, M Mashiri1 and J Chakwizira2 VillageReach Organisation, Seattle, United States of America, Cell: 1.206.755.0145 Email address: [email protected] 1GTRD, 25A Barnstable Road, Lynnwood Manor, Pretoria 0081, Email: [email protected] Cell: +27 72 122 9394 2University of Venda, School of Environmental Sciences, P/Bag X5050, Thohoyandou, 0950, South Africa; Tel: +27 (0)15 962 8585; Fax: +27(0)15 962 8587; Email: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT For many rural communities across southern Africa, access to even the most basic healthcare is not guaranteed. Competing demands by public sector agencies for limited transport resources, plus poor vehicle maintenance standards, prevent public health system motor pools from being available consistently to reach health centers on a regular basis. The irregular availability and use of transport also results in higher overall costs of distribution of medical commodities due to vehicle breakdowns, higher rates of product wastage, and higher personnel costs per successful delivery. As a result, medical commodities including vaccines and essential medicines are not provided reliably or in sufficient supply, needlessly impacting the health of these communities. This paper reviews current transport practices within the Ministry of Health (MISAU) and highlights existing trends in commercial transport with a view to presenting considerations in which the two sectors could collaborate to achieve improved reliability and increased efficiency of the distribution of medical commodities. A mixed method approach was employed to gather, review and process information.

  • Annual Report 2016
    Annual Report 2016 Our Mission Save lives and improve health by increasing access to quality health care for the most underserved communities. VillageReach programs currently reach over Executive 16 million people across multiple countries Summary throughout sub-Saharan Africa. VillageReach’s commitment to partnership was a key driver of our work in 2016. Successful collaboration with governments, the private sector, and our global teams led to the continued scale up of sustainable health innovation, increasing access to health care in many communities throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Highlights from 2016 include: Next-Generation Supply Chains: Progress on next-generation supply chains entered a new phase with work beginning in the Democratic Republic of Congo. New approaches, such as the Transport Services Solution, explore how the private sector can contribute to public health supply chains. A new report, Lessons Learned in Reaching the Final 20, summarizes the evidence gathered from more than a decade of work improving immunization supply chains in Mozambique. Chipatala Cha Pa Foni (“Health Center by Phone”): A new partnership with Airtel in Malawi provides critical support for Chipatala Cha Pa Foni, leveraging the private sector to make this health hotline scalable and sustainable. This partnership is central to the growth of the hotline as VillageReach works with the Ministry of Health to reach national scale in 2017. In addition, CCPF for Adolescents was launched, strengthening the existing hotline service to provide youth-friendly sexual and reproductive health information and referrals to facility-based services. Pharmacy Assistant Training Program: The second cohort of pharmacy assistants graduated from Malawi’s Pharmacy Assistant Training Program, adding an additional 85 trained health workers who will improve medicines management and pharmaceutical practice in rural pharmacies throughout Malawi.

  • Closing the GAP in Openlmis Code
    ​ Achieving the vision of ‘shared investment, shared benefit’ community software development GAP Project Success Story OpenLMIS believes in an open source software development philosophy of ‘shared investment, and ​ shared benefit’ whereby our community of global users are linked through a core code base, and ​ enhancements made by one country can be accessed and used by anyone in the community. To achieve this vision, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Digital Square funded the GAP Project, a 1 year initiative to unify the OpenLMIS codebase. Prior to the implementation of the GAP Project, the OpenLMIS community was comprised of a set of nation-wide implementations who were all using slightly different versions of OpenLMIS. Furthermore, the core code was often forked in different directions, and we lacked a plan or vision for community alignment on the various versions implemented. Because countries were using different versions of the software, their priorities, problems, and measures for success were different too. In this environment, community collaboration to improve OpenLMIS as an open source product became increasingly difficult as the user needs continued to diversify over time. OpenLMIS version 3.x is the current, community-supported version of OpenLMIS, which allows countries to share the same code base, and benefit from each others’ contributions and new features over time. The GAP project was introduced as a critical step in breaching the code gap for the national-level deployments of OpenLMIS v2. in Tanzania and Zambia, with the end goal of creating an upgrade path to OpenLMIS v3. Tanzania and Zambia were chosen as the representative v2 instances because of their long implementation history and continued active development by the local JSI team located in Zambia.
