RHInterchange

A web-based information system that responds to the supplies community's need for information for decision making, advocacy and coordination around RH supplies issues. The first and only site of its kind, the RHInterchange is an easily-accessible, live source of harmonized global information on inbound contraceptive supplies. It consolidates data on more than $1 billion worth of shipments to countries around the world.

Value

The total landed cost for a shipment from originating point to the port of entry. It includes such items as the commodity cost, any quality assurance sampling and testing, shipping cost and any related insurance, and any related fee (if there is one). It does not include clearance costs at the port of entry or any post-shipment testing.

The RHInterchange provides the following reports on contraceptive procurement. For detailed notes on the data itself, please see the About the Data section.
