PAN-AFRICA HEALTH INITIATIVE (Pan-AFHI)

Pan-Africa Health Initiative Pan-AFHI is a Pan-African Organization working for a quality and better health system for Africans. Pan-AFHI seeks to go beyond addressing the consequences of poor health by understanding, challenging and changing the conditions that cause poor health and exclusion through its Programs that unites practical work, research and advocacy. Pan-AFHI believes that people have a right to quality and better health care systems as a basic human need as stated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG3), thus we work in a common course for the poor and marginalized including Rural Communities who have been denied and/deprived or simply for some reason or another do not have access to their rights to basic and/or quality health services, to help them understand, challenge and change these conditions. Pan-AFHI’s response to the health challenges of Africa is firmly based on a belief that people themselves are the agents of change and actors of their own development. People’s ability to take action on the causes of poor health is what will transform Africa’s future especially our health system. This belief underpins Pan-AFHI’s practical work, its research methodologies and advocacy. Pan-AFHI will work in partnership with local Civil Society Organizations (CSO) and communities and in alliance with other International and continental organizations in Africa and the rest of the world to achieve its aims and objectives.
