Deadline: 30-Jun-22
reach52 is seeking expressions of interest (EoI) from established community-based organizations, such as NGOs, socially-minded private sector firms, and civil society organisations to partner together to implement the digital health model in new rural communities.
By partnering with them, you can use their award-winning health tech and services to support the delivery of your impact goals, connecting underserved populations to primary care healthcare services and access to affordable health products.
The growth partnership model works to develop and implement the digital health ecosystem for rural communities in LMICs:
- Phase 1 – Set-up: Growth Partner recruits local network of health agents from target communities; facilitates trainings; equips with reach52 tech.
- Phase 2- Community research and onboarding: Baseline data is collected; residents are signed-up to reach52 eHealth platform.
- Phase 3 – Campaign implementation: Implement campaigns focusing on community health promotion, population screening, and health worker upskilling. Campaigns may also include supporting a last-mile marketplace of micro-insurance and health products.
Benefits
- Benefits to partners: reach52 provides implementation partners with both financial and in-kind supports:
- Performance-based sustainable funding channel
- Free use of reach52’s eHealth platform
- Training and ongoing implementation support
- Support for project and 3rd party grant development
- Benefit to Communities
- Reduced out-of-pocket spending and improved access to affordable medicines, consumer health products, and micro-insurance plans
- Upskilling and digitisation of frontline Community Health Workers
- Micro-entrepreneurial opportunities for local women
Target Communities
- As a sustainable social business model, reach52 is seeking to implement in rural communities where residents earn an average income of US $3-8/day.
- We are seeking to engage households in the ‘missing middle’, who are earning just a bit too much to qualify for government social protection schemes, yet still face significant health access barriers.
- Beneficiaries should also be living a significant distance from existing health and financial services, such as clinics, pharmacies and MFI branches.
Geographical Area: reach52 is interested in exploring potential implementations in Kenya, Indonesia, India, Philippines and Cambodia.
What languages is the tech platform available in?
reach52 currently support English; Hiligaynon; Khmer; Kannada; Bahasa and Swahili. Additional languages can be easily added by reach52. The technical process can be completed in 3-4 weeks.
Eligibility Criteria
Implementation partners should conform to the following requirements:
- Projects to be implemented in Kenya, Indonesia, India, Cambodia, and Philippines. Currently also scouting organizations who can implement in South Africa, Tanzania, Bangladesh, and Pakistan.
- Legally registered non-profit or for-profit organizations with existing community operations in rural regions, relationships with rural populations
- A broad focus on providing supports/services relating to health, livelihoods; micro-entrepreneurialism, and/or rural development
