The healthy entrepreneurs, a Dutch social enterprise, uses community health entrepreneurship to increase access to essential medicines and health services for rural, underserved, populations in fragile settings in Uganda.
The project will evaluate the use of entrepreneurship to strengthen the community health supply chain and the community health worker program in rural Uganda. The findings of this project will inform decision makers on the additional contribution of community health entrepreneurship to the village health team program in Uganda.
