## Resource

Edward Booty is founder and CEO of reach52, getting essential healthcare products and services to people the system doesn’t reach. Edward has spent his career working across health systems in low and middle-income countries, where access isn’t just about clinics or medicines, but trust, distribution, and behaviour. Through reach52, he’s building a community-driven model that combines digital platforms with local health workers, integrating public and private sectors to reach millions of people typically left out of formal healthcare. This conversation is the third in our series with our friends and partners at Save the Children Global Ventures. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
