TwitterFacebookLinkedIn

At Chemonics, we work hand-in-hand with governments and local partners to address some of the world’s most challenging health issues, with the understanding that complex health problems require integrated solutions. We apply expertise and lessons learned from our work across sectors — in education, environment, gender, democracy and governance, economic growth, and agriculture — to support local actors and holistically address intractable health problems. We push today’s human resources for health agenda by drawing on our expertise from working in more than 20 countries to improve performance and productivity of health workforces. Our global health supply chain programming delivers essential commodities to more than 60 countries around the world. And we deliver essential health care in complex operating environments. For example, we ensure that communities across northern Nigeria have access to quality HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment services. With decades of experience operating in complex social and political environments, we know how to quickly mobilize resources, seamlessly adapt to change and strategically apply lessons learned across all our projects.
