Our Philosophy

At Health Volunteers International our vision is to make the highest attainable standard of health accessible to all.

We aim to achieve this with local collaboration through medical education, training and capacity building to improve quality of health care in African countries. 

In particular, we aim to reduce the number of women dying from childbirth and pregnancy related causes, and to promote female empowerment. We also undertake effective monitoring and evaluation to demonstrate a positive impact of our activities and an improvement in patient outcomes.
