How do we scale public-private partnerships to facilitate growth and development in rural areas? Villages at "the last mile" tend to be ignored by most organizations as they are difficult to reach and usually inaccessible. The challenge of cost-effective transport infrastructure limits the effectiveness of all interventions directed toward rural communities – from food security and health to education and livelihoods. Riders for Health has found a solution to this problem by utilizing a variety of modalities and innovative financing mechanisms. This event will explore how Riders has leveraged government, philanthropic and commercial capital to deliver cost effective, sustainable and universal health access in The Gambia. The event will be held from 10:00am - 11:30am. Please RSVP to Lee Williams at lwilliams@csis.org.

Dr. Gerard Anderson, professor of health policy and management and international health at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School Public Health, will share his recent keynote presentation from the 50th anniversary celebration of the OECD. His talk will focus on an important disconnect we face in combatting NCDs : while half of the cost of medical care in most industrialized countries goes toward the treatment of people with multiple NCDs, the research infrastructure, clinical education, payment and delivery systems and quality metrics are not oriented to effectively treat this population.
