Contact us about supporting HealthProm

HealthProm was set up by a team of medical experts to address the healthcare deficit in the Former Soviet Union. They work with local partners to promote healthcare and social reform, and to ensure that medical services are made accessible to mothers and children. HealthProm's practices include infection control, safe childbirth and child mental health projects.

Our assessment:

  • HealthProm is driven by specialists in maternal health and paediatric care who give their time voluntarily.
  • HealthProm works with a growing network of local partners, supporting them in the implementation of care models and medical interventions.
  • HealthProm works in remote geographical locations such northern Afghanistan where medical support, especially for childbirth, is usually absent.
