Commodity security frameworks for health planning

Building functional logistics systems and a healthy supplier base within low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are key ways of providing steady, predictable supplies of health commodities for unpredictable demands for healthcare and health. Efforts to provide secure supplies of health commodities...
