After nearly two years of complex and often challenging work, we have brought this engagement to a successful close. Significant disruptions to the international funding landscape reshaped the project more than once. We are proud that the team showed flexibility and stamina to involve the partners at every level: change happens at the individual level so individuals need to participate in change programmes.
Working alongside UNICEF, the Ethiopia Ministry of Health, and Universitร della Svizzera Italiana, Paeradigms delivered a full diagnostic and capacity-building intervention on Ethiopia's supply chain for Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF), the essential nutrients that are needed by 1.2 million severely acutely malnourished children across the country.
We conducted a six-phase diagnostic study, designed a 10-module training toolkit, and delivered a national Train-the-Trainers programme. More than 40 participants joined from all 14 regions of Ethiopia. Bringing together representatives from every region, at this particular moment in its history, was itself no small achievement.
What we're most proud of is what the project leaves behind. A validated toolkit, standardised practices, and a rollout infrastructure that the Ministry and UNICEF can operate and scale independently. A system that was fragile and externally dependent now has real internal capacity.
Grateful to everyone who stayed the course.
