HEALCANADA is a grassroots organization that works to positively transform communities in developing African countries and Canada through a holistic approach to Health, Education, community Action and Leadership development.

Based in West Vancouver, BC, HEALCANADA builds on strong, established relationships with people and organizations working on the ground to identify the most pressing needs in the most vulnerable areas. Our aim is to recognize existing strengths of these vulnerable areas using ‘appreciative inquiry’ and then use an integrated project concept of ‘Provision, Prevention and ProAction’ to develop effective strategies that make a sustainable impact and a real and lasting difference.

The right to adequate medical care, gender equality and the basic right of an education form the core of our current projects.  These initiatives focus on programs that benefit and create opportunities for women and children.  HEALCANADA concentrates its work in the Great Lakes region of eastern Africa.

AMREF is the African Medical & Research Foundation – the world’s leading African health development organization. Headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, AMREF offers a point of view that is distinct from other health NGOs. Results-driven and evidence-based, AMREF openly shares knowledge and learning to strengthen the work of African Ministries of Health and other NGOs. With over 50 years on the ground in Africa, AMREF knows effective development strategies must be organized and developed with communities as integral participants while integrating NGOs and MOHs in the design and delivery of health care. 

Founded in 1957 as the Flying Doctors Service, AMREF has since received prestigious accolades including the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Award for Global Health. A leader in health solutions for mothers and newborns – especially those in remote communities and neglected urban slums – AMREF addresses the critical shortage of health workers at all levels in Africa. We have trained, for example, most of Southern Sudan’s health work force.
