ActiveBackground
The Supply Chain Investment Coordination & Advocacy (SCICA) program in Democratic Republic of Congo aims to create better coordination of donor-funded and government-funded supply chain investments. Since 2020 we have been working with the DRC government to implement an approach that manages investments in supply chain strengthening in a limited number of national programs and provinces in order to:
- Improve supply chain performance
- Improved use of both donor-driven and domestic supply chain investments at the national and subnational level
How it
Works
By 2025 we hope this approach is being used for three programs to cover products related to reproductive health, nutrition and HIV-AIDS and in four provinces:
- Kinshasa
- Kongo Central
- Tanganyika
- Kasaï Central
