“The EAHS Nairobi 2025 Summit offered an excellent platform for constructive dialogue between humanitarian actors, policy makers and private sector partners. The conversations around procurement in fragile and conflict-affected contexts were timely and deeply relevant to operational realities in the field. The quality of vendor engagement and the questions raised reflected a strong appetite for genuine partnership, compliance, and impact-driven delivery. I greatly valued the meaningful exchanges, which reinforced the importance of transparency, preparedness, and context-sensitive supply chain strategies in high-risk environments. I thoroughly enjoyed the two days of participation and commend EAHS for fostering a collaborative space that translates challenges into solutions.”
