Amref Health Africa was founded in 1957 and has since grown to become the largest African- based international health development organisation; currently implementing more than 180 programs, reaching more than 40 million people across 35 African countries; and a staff complement of over 2,000. Headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, Amref Health Africa has offices in ten countries in Africa – Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Guinea (Conakry), Kenya, Malawi, Senegal, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. An additional eleven advocacy and fundraising offices are located in Europe and North America.
Amref Health Africa is driven by its vision of ‘Lasting health change in Africa’ and its mission ‘To catalyze and drive community-led and people-centred health systems while addressing social determinants of health’. We believe that the power to transform Africa’s health lies within its communities, and therefore strive to ensure that health systems are not only functional but that communities are empowered to hold these systems accountable for the delivery of quality and affordable health care. Health Systems Strengthening (HSS) is integral to health service delivery and responding to health development needs. As a champion of Universal Health Coverage (UHC), Amref Health Africa prides itself in working directly with communities and governments to build strong
community health systems. Technical Assistance (TA) delivery and Health Financing are among the critical paths to improving health systems resilience, progressing toward the attainment of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and more importantly, driving the impact on health outcomes. Amref’s goal is to drive the delivery of technical assistance to governments
and civil society organizations across Africa, increasing knowledge platforms and thought leadership. Amref Health Africa has mobilized resources to create opportunities for countries and units across the organization to catalyze the provision of innovative technical assistance approaches. To deliver on its mandate the HSS directorate has four main pillars i.e. Health
Financing, Reproductive Maternal Child and Adolescent Health [RMNCAH], Primary Health Care, and Social Determinants of Health (SDoH)
