PSI expands access to low-cost, high quality products through the PASMO social enterprise in Central America, which addresses the health needs of clients across the region at scale and leverages regional operational best practices to deliver long-term, financially sustainable health impact.
Historically, PSI has always taken an enterprise-style approach to global health challenges, coupling donor funding with marketing, the use of branded products and consumer insights from the private sector.
