Health is a
global development
Goal!
Strong, efficient health care is the basis for realising the human right to the "highest attainable standard of physical and mental health", as formulated by the United Nations in the Social Covenant as early as 1966. Health is a global development goal - every person should have access to adequate, comprehensive and affordable health care for all population groups. In most developing and emerging countries, however, a large proportion of people still do not have sufficient access to adequate health care.
Health is a global development goal -
everyone should have access to adequate,
comprehensive and affordable health care for all population groups.
Physical Infrastructure
A functioning and efficiently built infrastructure is the basis for an effective health sector that is consequently able to serve citizens from all strata.
Digital Infrastructure
Standardisation of digital communication across the entire healthcare value chain is is the key to success in the digitisation of the health care sector.
Skilled Personnel
Education and training of professionals such as (bio-medical) technicians, hospital managers, ICT specialists and stakeholders from the pharmaceutical sector.
Medical Engineering
As a sub-sector of the physical infrastructure, medical technology forms the working basis for the successful deployment of doctors and nursing staff.
Pharmaceutical Sector
The local pharmaceutical sector forms the foundation for an effective and independent supply of medication to the population, including vital vaccines.
AGHA
The African German Health Association e. V. emerged in 2020 from an initiative by companies to make a contribution and sustainably strengthen health systems in Africa together with local actors. The association works on a project-oriented basis to create new impulses in both the digital and physical infrastructure in African partner countries with a focus on long-term success. To this end, all activities are designed in accord-ance with the UN Global Compact and the UN Sustainability Development Goals.
Mission
It is the African German Health association’s mission to sustainably improve the physical and digital infrastructure of the health sectors in Africa. After all, strong, efficient health care is the basis for realising the human right to the "highest attainable standard of physical and mental health", as formulated by the United Nations in the Social Covenant as early as 1966. Health is a global development goal - everyone should have access to adequate, comprehensive and affordable health care for all population groups.
Our Activities
Since its start in 2020, the association has already implemented numerous projects with its project partners in Africa. Fully involving local and international stakeholders in all project phases is very important to us.
