We Demand Justice in Health Care

Everyone should have access to quality health care. But for millions around the world, that's not the reality.

50% of people across the globe lack access to essential health care.

94% of maternal deaths occur in low and lower middle-income countries.

Each day, 15,000 children die before reaching their fifth birthday.

FOLLOWING PAUL'S VISION

Dr. Paul Farmer (1959-2022) co-founded Partners In Health based on the belief that everyone deserves quality health care. Paul cared for the sick, trained generations of clinicians, and transformed health care policies-saving millions of lives and inspiring a movement toward global health equity. We carry forward his legacy and vision.
