You can buy the best equipment in the world. If nobody can use it, maintain it, or agree who gets paid what, patients die. In this episode, a man who helped build Zambia's first cancer hospital explains what big healthcare projects teach anyone building a practice: the science and the money are rarely the problem. The people are.
Lameen Abdul-Malik is a Nobel Peace Prize laureate with the IAEA who deployed over €100 million in development projects across Africa, then left to open a coffee shop in Cape Town. He is the creator of the IMPACT Framework and is launching his book, Nobel Peace Prize Entrepreneur.
