- About my work:
- The Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) is an alliance driven by the vision of a world without malnutrition. Created in 2002 at a Special Session of the UN General Assembly on Children, GAIN supports public-private partnerships to increase access to the missing nutrients in diets necessary for people, communities and economies to be stronger and healthier.
In less than a decade, GAIN has been able to scale its operations by investing in and working alongside more than 600 companies across 36 large-scale collaborations in more than 25 countries, reaching close to 400 million people with nutritionally enhanced food products. Half of the beneficiaries are women and children. GAIN’s goal is to reach more than one billion people with fortified foods that have sustainable nutritional impact.

Hi:
Thank you for accepting my request for us to be friends, on Business Fights Poverty. I’m optimistic that our interactions will ‘sharpen’ both of us professionally. As a first shot, may I crave your indulgence towards providing your perspective on this long question:
What’s your advice to someone, who has been doing so much to propagate BoP in his environment (please click on http://www.iroy.in/category/business/markets-for-poor/ for insight), which has a population of more than 112 million poor people; government officials/institutions contacted on adoption of the concept are either ignorant or don’t care about it; prospective local private sector ventures lack sectoral motivation; and it’s very likely that most related business models will succeed in the place?
I anticipate your early response.
Anie Anokuru
