Delivering relief: Conquering supply chain challenges

Aid efforts in Africa come with a unique and complex set of challenges.

While shipping relief to the continent’s ports is one half of the job, traversing inland routes, national borders, and last-mile journeys pose a greater conundrum. Civilian conflicts, bureaucratic hurdles, and deficient transport infrastructure only compound these woes.
