Abstract

Key Messages
People that Deliver (PtD), a coalition of more than 30 organizations, is united by its goal of developing a competent, supported, and adequately staffed health supply chain workforce deployed across the public and private sectors within the health system in low- and middle-income countries.

The PtD coalition fills a void in public health by striving to professionalize the supply chain workforce.

Through its activities, which span advocacy, convening diverse organizations, creating technical tools and frameworks, and developing leadership capacity, the coalition helps to strengthen health supply chains and ensure access to health commodities. Investing in PtD, therefore, means investing in workforce development in low- and middle-income countries.
