PSI Official Discusses Organization’s Innovations Strategies In Washington Post Feature
As part of its series on innovation, the Washington Post features an interview with PSI Vice President for Corporate Marketing and Communications Kate Roberts, who answers several questions regarding PSI's work in global health. Roberts discusses providing safe drinking water; creating partnerships between the private sector and non-profit organizations; being a "lone actor" for short periods in order to prove an intervention's worth; investing in an Innovations Fund "that allows us to experiment with new ideas that PSI believes in but that donor agencies aren't yet ready to support"; and social franchising, which is "a way of delivering health products and services that ensures that they're accessible, affordable and desirable to all those in need" (Roberts, 11/8).
