“Africa must move from donorship to ownership” quote from @docthakker at @ghsc_summit @VillageReach

I am speaking at SAPICS 2023 - Annual Conference & Exhibition. Please check out my talk if you're attending the event! #SAPICS2023 #forwardthinking #SAPICS #community #thinksupplychainthinksapics #SASCS @sapics01 - via #Whova event app

Today, it's clear that drone logistics helps close the equity gap in public health. The next question is "What business model & costing structure will make drone logistics affordable in public health settings?" This is what @VillageReach, with partners, is committed to address.

Are you attending the Global Health Supply Chain Summit (#GHSCS2022)? Join the UAV for Payload Delivery Working Group for Happy Hour at the Baobab Restaurant on Dec 1, from 6:15 - 8:00 PM. Food and beverages will be served. We hope to see you there! @ghsc_summit

@VillageReach Great opportunity to join a team that is directly contributing to the design of supply chains of the future.

The UAV for Payload Delivery Working Group (UPDWG) is a #global community focused on #drones in #publichealth supply chains. They need an Online Community Manager. Qualified applicants are given priority if CV is submitted by 8/19. bit.ly/3wexxwj

@TradHatton @UNICEF It is in fact the #SwoopAero operations support by #VillageReach. #USAID is also contributing through #UNICEF to add a few more drone sites. A true collaboration in service to the government of DRC and its underserved communities.

@UNICEF Shouldn't UNICEF give credit to Village Reach, or are these Swoop Aero independent of VR?

Medical drones are helping UNICEF contain the spread of Ebola in DR Congo. They help André, a drone operator, collect samples from remote areas.

@VillageReachAfr @VillageReach @MinSanteRDC One of VillageReach key principles in our Transitioning Well approach is to work closely with governments from the very beginning. Great start Freddy. @VillageReach @VillageReachCo @MinSanteRDC

I am really looking forward to presenting at the upcoming Supply Chain Re-Connect 2021. I'll be sharing my perspective on Drones and the Future of Air Logistics, from urban parcel delivery in the US to extreme logistics in rural Africa. lnkd.in/gm2JMbP
