Fresh Perspectives and New Goals

 

 

 
Looking Ahead to 2023 and Beyond 

When I look back on 2022, I see so many places VillageReach took chances, aimed higher, and achieved new impacts in partnership with others. At the “vaccinodromes” of Kinshasa (DRC) and Yopougon (Côte d’Ivoire), we combined all that we know about delivering primary health care for the hardest to reach populations, immunization and supply chains, to develop quality, client-centered COVID-19 vaccination sites that directly vaccinated over 300,000 people, along with a model that is now being implemented by others. With persistence, iteration, data, and innovation we showed how health care can be more accessible and impactful.

I am proud of our reputation as trusted thought leaders and radical collaborators. That ethos has led us to take great steps in 2022 to share the fruits of our field work and research in new ways, including the release of a comprehensive supply chain integration framework, global goods to help governments, donors and implementers to forge ever closer relationships, and most recently, a podcast featuring our friends and partners. Thanks to each and every one of you for your daily contributions to ensuring a world where everyone has the health care needed to thrive. I look forward to a wonderful 2023 of work together.


In solidarity,

Emily Bancroft, President
