Motorcycle taxis for insulin supplies in remote areas in Uganda - a podcast by Julia Joseph

Uganda is a country struggling from political lockdowns, which is increasing their humanitarian crises. I spoke with Vivian Nabeta, founder of the Sonia Nabeta Foundation. In her counrty, kids need to travel up to 6h every 6 weeks, the majority of that by foot, to reach the nearest clinic for their next insulin vial. This issue got even bigger due to lockdowns and further limits of transportation.

Now, motoscylce taxis are being used to bring medication to remote areas, making Uganda a pilot country to reduce this travel gap families face, which otherwise prevents them from accessing insulin. I spoke with Vivian about her life saving project, how it all started and how to keep insulin cool without fridges.
