I. Contexte
Impact Santé Afrique (ISA) is a Cameroon-based non-governmental organization
dedicated to improving people's health. It has set up the “Equité Accès Palu” initiative with
the aim of increasing the involvement of civil society in the implementation of Cameroon's
National Malaria Control Strategic Plan.
The supply chain for malaria control inputs in Cameroon is complex. ISA, in
collaboration with the NMCP and the Ministry of Public Health, is carrying out a supply chain
analysis study to document and clarify the different processes, roles and responsibilities of
suppliers at national, regional, district and CSA levels, in order to identify the different
processes, highlight bottlenecks and all the different players involved. Following this
activity, a workshop will be organized with all identified stakeholders to find solutions to the
identified bottlenecks to ensure that products reach the CHWs. The “system in the room”
methodology will be used to carry out this activity.
To this end, ISA is recruiting an International Expert who will be responsible for
preparing and facilitating the “system in the room” workshop, as well as training ISA and
NMCP members in this methodology. This workshop will clearly define solutions to the
bottlenecks identified during the study, thus ensuring that anti-malarial inputs reach CHWs,
the first link in the fight against malaria at community level, on a regular basis.
Objectives
The main objective of this consultancy mission is to organize and facilitate the “system in
the room” workshop in order to find solutions to the various bottlenecks in the malaria input
supply chain and to enable the engagement of key players in the process.

study to jointly identify bottlenecks and key players in the process.
- Propose a “system in the room” methodology to be adopted to collectively identify
bottlenecks and proposed solutions;
- Train ISA and PNLP members on the “system in the room” concept so that they can
follow the roadmap recommendations.


- Support the Impact Santé Afrique team in preparing the “system in the room”
workshop;
- Facilitate the workshop,
- Propose an explicit roadmap for the follow-up of the workshop recommendations.
