Description
The Usa River Clinic in Tanzania is full of patients today. Clinic personnel care for young children suffering from clubfoot - a congenital birth defect limiting mobility - while their mothers hold them in their arms. Patients from all over Tanzania can come to the clinic thanks to MiracleFeet, a non-profit organization providing access to treatment for clubfoot in low income countries. In this experience, participants will immerse as MiracleFeet's advisers, and explore its unique strategic, organizational, and operational model. MiracleFeet is facing significant changes as they plan to expand their offering to middle income countries, and participants are challenged to help them achieve their goals. What new strategies will they develop?
