Successful Partnerships

 

Meridian designs and implements health-related initiatives in partnership with corporations, civil society (NGOs), and the donor community.  Meridian has worked in Morocco and Ghana with the American Chambers of Commerce as well as several bi-lateral trade organizations (The Association of Ghana Industries, The United States-Morocco Council on Trade & Investment, etc.) to design projects that help motivate local industry to address Family Planning and Reproductive Health needs in the workplace. 

In Brazil, Meridian successfully partnered with Ethos (a local CSR business association) to develop a manual “How to Support Women’s Health” to guide its corporate members.  Meridian staff conducted CSR workshops in Colombia and Guatemala in order to provide leadership to local businesses and NGOs on new CSR partnership approaches.  Meridian is also working with corporations and reproductive health NGOs in Peru, Egypt, Guatemala, and Bangladesh.
