Professional Experience: |
. I am a qualified, dedicated and experienced international humanitarian aid worker, specializing in medicinal program coordination. My most recent role has been the encoding, analysis and reporting on a Directorate of Pharmaceutical Services, Ministry of Health and Child Care project that was being funded by multiple donors (UNICEF, UNDP, JSI, USAID, UK DFID, CROWN AGENTS) to provide medicines to every medical facility in Zimbabwe. The facilities I was dealing with were on average 1600 and there was need for my team to ensure there are no stock outs and instead availability of medicinal drugs when a patient visits a clinic. Encoding, analysis and reporting was important so as to give feedback to all stockholders on what the program has been able to achieve and for quantification purposes.
My time at Natpharm has seen me plan, implement, evaluate and report on programs that provide both immediate emergency relief and sustainable local development. I have overseen the distribution of essential medicines and supplements, coordination of primary health care services, training of program delivery teams and provision of logistical and technical support. This role has also involved collecting and analyzing data on the impact and effectiveness of our health programs on communities, as well as ensuring donor compliance in every aspect of our program delivery.
This experience has given me knowledge and perspective in humanitarian emergency situations, and an understanding of the importance of developing sustainable community development programs.
