New Delhi: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation on Tuesday released its 'India Country Office Letter 2018' demonstrating its commitment to collaborations with key stakeholders to deliver solutions to address some of India's most pressing health and development challenges.
The ICO letter, an annual feature at the Gates Foundation India office, highlighted the theme of 'Celebrating Partnerships', a statement issued by the foundation said.
It provides specific examples of such collaborative efforts and illustrates how this approach has helped solve problems, ranging from issues such as vaccination to maternal, newborn and child care to local level sensitisation of farmers, it said.
The foundation's operating approach is based on collaborations and, at every stage, informed by a broad group of experts inside and outside the foundation, community leaders, government officials, civil society leaders and advocates, it added.
Nachiket Mor, Country Director, India, referred to the need for collaboration and working together towards shared goals.
"Working with local and global experts and stakeholders in the ecosystem allows us to draw on the unique talents, resources and know-how of industry, academia and the public sector, to better serve the most vulnerable communities," he said.
The experience of working with the Bihar government was a stellar example of collaboration which is outlined in the letter, the statement said.
The foundation worked closely with the state government and CARE to help test new techniques and technologies to improve healthcare delivery service quality, it said.
