BNP Paribas Foundation and its subsidiary in Mali, BICIM, decided to pursue the partnership with Pesinet.
After supporting in 2009 the development of an upgraded version of the technological application used for child health follow-up, BNP Paribas today chooses to contribute in the three coming years to the expansion of the proximity health activities carried out by Pesinet among families, through the deployment of its child e-health program.
BNP Paribas Foundation and BICIM identified in the service implemented by Pesinet an innovative use of technologies to improve health education and access to proximity care for populations in Mali.
The use of information technologies enables to recreate a bound of trust between populations and healthcare structures, through the proximity work of health agents, who visit families every week to collect key data on children’s state of health, raise awarenesss of medical follow-up and good sanitary practices.
Pesinet warmly thanks BNP Paribas for its renewed trust and welcomes this long-term partnership. The joint support from the Foundation and BICIM will allow the organization to develop its activities in the field, to increase the number of children covered by the service, to carry out an evaluation of the program and to build improved tools for program implementation.
