Learning Objectives

This case is suitable for undergraduate and MBA students in courses in public policy, not-for-profit organizations, corporate social responsibility/sustainability, social enterprises, healthcare policy, international business, and emerging markets. It is particularly suited for classes that address stakeholder management, the role of not-for-profit organizations, the global market for medicines, business ethics, social entrepreneurship, and healthcare policy, with a particular focus on emerging markets. After completing the case, students will be able to:

identify the interests of various stakeholders and explain how a not-for-profit organization capitalized on an opportunity;
recognize the challenges faced by the principal of a not-for-profit organization in creating change;
understand the workings of multi-stakeholder initiatives; and
identify the public health issues in emerging markets and the role of pharmaceutical companies in addressing those challenges.
