Medicine Access Zambia at Zambia Ministry of Health (MoH) & Tony Blair Institute (TBI)

In our end-to-end supply chain mapping my team and I identified eight key areas of fragmentation that significantly impacted the supply chain visibility at a system and people level. Through a two-day co-design workshop with all stakeholders, including the MoH, we developed strategies collectively. Our priority was addressing the people-centric fragmentation areas, recognising their critical role in the supply chain.
