Millions Saved

by Ruth Levine

[THIS BOOK WAS RECOMMENDED BY RAJIV SHAH, HEAD OF USAID] We got hundreds of examples of potential success stories, and chose those that were based on the most rigorous data and that succeeded at scale. These aren't about saving two lives in one village somewhere, although that is important to do. These stories are about transforming the health of entire countries and reaching hundreds of thousands over time. All these projects also built institutional capacity that was sustained after the donors went away.
