E-drug: Seminar on Contraceptive Security
------------------------------------------------------------
DELIVER To Hold Seminar on Contraceptive Security and Market
Segmentation
On December 4, 2001, DELIVER and Commercial Market
Strategies (CMS) will co-host a half-day seminar: "Segmenting
Markets to Maximize Contraceptive Security." For developing
countries, market segmentation may offer one way to help fulfill
future demand for contraceptives. Knowledgeable panelists will
discuss this exciting possibility. The event will be held at the
National Press Club in Washington, DC, from 12:30*4:30 p.m.
A reception will follow. For more detailed information about the
topic, go to www.deliver.jsi.com.
To register, please contact Eldri Ferguson at cis@jsi.com or
703-528-7474. Space is limited. For more information about CMS, go to

DELIVER, a project sponsored by the U. S. Agency for International
Development (USAID), strengthens the supply chains of health and
family planning programs in developing countries to ensure the
availability of critical health products for customers. In implementing
DELIVER, John Snow, Inc., (JSI), the prime contractor, is building
upon the accomplishments of USAID's Family Planning Logistics
Management (FPLM) projects I, II, and III. Administered by JSI
from 1986*2000, FPLM helped establish and maintain improved
logistics systems in more than 30 countries. DELIVER's motto "No
Product? No Program." is a reminder that without a full supply of
products, health programs cannot operate.
The Commercial Market Strategies (CMS) project is a five-year
USAID-funded project from the Office of Population Health and
Nutrition. The goal of CMS is to motivate the private and
commercial sector in developing countries to increase access and
demand for quality reproductive health and family planning products
and services. As various donor-funded population programs are
shrinking their budgets and closing their offices, the work of CMS is
critical in maintaining contraceptive security in the neediest parts of
the world.
