What's the private sector's role in fighting malaria?

As the CHMI database and website continue to grow, we’re moving into a phase more focused on the analytics of health market innovations. We’ve heard feedback from our core audiences about their desire to know what it all means: what are we finding? What can the website tell us?

To meet these requests, we’re developing a series of “briefs” on key topics of interest to our stakeholders.

The Center for Health Market Innovations is dedicated to sharing information and connecting people working to improve health markets in developing countries. You may be managing a program and looking to get ideas from people who have implemented a similar program (say, micro-insurance) in another country. Or you may be a small successful startup seeking additional funding to scale-up your operations. This is one area where CHMI is looking to play a role. Our site today houses more than 600 program profiles and more than 70 funding organizations.

This way, organizations create goals that are focused on outcomes and ensure data collection happens along with implementation to measure progress toward set outcomes.
