IIF's Project in Mozambique
Mozambique was the first country where the RAPIA was implemented in 2003. Following this the IIF provided technical support through the Twinning Project between Diabetes UK and Mozambique and the World Diabetes Foundation also provided in-country funding for a variety of projects.
One of the outcomes of this support was the development of a National NCD Plan which included as one of its activities to carry out another, follow-up, RAPIA in 2009 to assess progress with regards to diabetes. The aim of this was to see the progress to date, identify success stories and failures and use these as lessons learnt for the implementation of other programmes for diabetes and NCDs.
With regards to access to medicines, the initial implementation of the RAPIA only looked at the issue of insulin supply and cost, for this assessment oral medicines for diabetes were also included.
