Dear e-druggers,

Who will coordinate?? (information on the many potentially interesting
packages have been developed - often in the context of projects - but go on
unnoticed at the (inter)national level.)
In a study made for UNICEF, comparing 3 Central Medical Stores (Burkina,
Guinee, Senegal), we found that no one had a well functioning drug inventory
software package. So we proposed to UNICEF to do something about that, not
only for the 3 CMS, but globally.
UNICEF, with all its Bamako Initiative programmes, has relations with a lot
of CMS's, and they have some expertise on drug inventory, with the supply
division in Copenhaguen.
But does UNICEF want to do that ?
