ABOUT AMREF HEALTH AFRICA
Since 1957, Amref Health Africa has evolved into Africa's largest homegrown international health development organization. Today, we operate over 180 programs across 35 African countries, touching the lives of more than 40 million people with a workforce exceeding 2,000 dedicated professionals. With our main office in Nairobi, Kenya, we maintain active operations in Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Guinea (Conakry), Malawi, Senegal, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia, complemented by advocacy and fundraising offices across Europe and North America.
Our vision is bold: lasting health change in Africa. Our mission is equally clear: to catalyze and drive community-led, people-centred health systems while addressing the social determinants of health. We believe Africa's communities hold the power to transform their own health outcomes, which is why we focus on building functional health systems that empower communities to demand and receive quality, affordable healthcare.
