Reach Digital Health honoured with Prestigious Skoll Foundation Recognition.
Reach Digital Health (previously Praekelt.org) has been awarded the prestigious 2023 Skoll Award for Social Innovation, highlighting leaders and organisations advancing transformational social change worldwide.
After 16 years dedicated to strengthening health systems in low- to middle-income countries, Reach Digital Health (Reach) will continue to maximise its experience as a digital health innovator and leverage the award to strengthen partnerships and improve health across the Continent.
The Skoll Foundation’s announcement on Tuesday (3 April, 2023) recognises Reach (the only African organisation in the 2023 cohort) for its accomplishments in driving large-scale, systemic, and sustainable change”.
Debbie Rogers, Reach CEO, said, “We are honoured to be a recipient of the prestigious Skoll Award and for the recognition of our work alongside four other incredible organisations. This Award would not have been possible without our dedicated partners’ support and our team’s passion and commitment.`
Supported by the Skoll Foundation’s endorsement, Reach will unlock additional growth opportunities, increase its profile as a pan-African entity and foster deeper collaborations between partners and stakeholders — including ministries of health, health providers, partners and citizens.
