Open to: Social entrepreneurs*

There exist cost-effective interventions and surgeries that correct damaging health conditions like obstetric fistula, cervical cancer, club foot and cataracts; yet identifying individuals in need of treatment is challenging. In three months, identify and reach 100 patients with treatment for an easily correctable health condition as a pilot, then grow to reach 5,000 patients over two years.
A successful model will be evidence-based, will include continuous monitoring and testing, and a commitment to change if evidence suggests your approach is not working.
