The USAID | DELIVER PROJECT, Task Order 4, developed this guide for quantifying health commodities; it will assist technical advisors, program managers, warehouse managers, procurement officers, and service providers in (1) estimating the total commodity needs and costs for successful implementation... of national health program strategies and goals, (2) identifying the funding needs and gaps for procuring the required commodities, and (3) planning procurements and shipment delivery schedules to ensure a sustained and effective supply of health commodities.
The step-by-step approach to quantification presented in this guide is complemented by a set of product-specific companion pieces that include detailed instructions for forecasting consumption of antiretroviral drugs, HIV test kits, antimalarial drugs, and laboratory supplies.

Cette mission menée conjointement par la représentante du Ministère de la Santé en charge du projet, la
responsable EVIPNet de l’OMS à Genève et le directeur de la fondation Winds of Hope visait à établir le lien entre
le Ministère de la Santé et les différentes parties prenantes du B...urkina Faso en charge de la prévention et de
prise en charge du noma, notamment les ONG : Sentinelles, Persis et Hymne aux Enfants. En effet, le Ministère
de la Santé du Burkina Faso a décidé d’écrire une note de politique (policy brief) sur cette maladie négligée non
transmissible qu’est le noma pour provoquer un dialogue politique (forum délibératif) devant déboucher sur des
actions politiques concrètes. Cette maladie, symbole des ravages de l’extrême pauvreté, affecte les zones les
plus isolées et pauvres du Burkina Faso. Cette initiative du Ministère de la Santé du Burkina Faso qui a acquis
maintenant une grande expérience dans l’écriture de notes de politique et dans l’organisation de dialogues
politiques est une démarche concrète et significative pour adresser les inégalités sociales et l’extrême pauvreté.
