The SEAM Program—created by MSH and funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation—was established to improve access to and use of essential medicines and other health commodities in the developing world. SEAM encourages and supports innovative, country-level public-private initiatives and complements the collaboration between MSH and the many organizations with which we work.
