We've heard of Lesotho 🇱🇸 And so have the 2 million people who call it home. But if you haven’t, or you have but don’t know much about the country, here’s a quick rundown: Lesotho is a small, mountainous country in southern Africa, known for its breathtaking landscapes, high-altitude villages, and one unique fact: it’s the only country in the world where every inch of land sits over 1,000 meters above sea level. But beyond its beauty, Lesotho faces serious challenges, including high rates of HIV and tuberculosis. Which is why, since 2006, we've been on the ground, delivering lifesaving care, training local health workers, and ensuring people get the treatment they need. So yes, people have heard of Lesotho. And if you hadn’t before, now you have. Tap the link to learn more: https://lnkd.in/eywsQmre

We just won the Skoll Foundation award for social innovation. But, what’s our innovation? To close the healthcare delivery gap, we knew we needed to do things differently. Our goal is systems change - not organisational growth or brand share. So, we reimagined the traditional aid model of fractured competition, siloed effort and wasteful resourcing. This award is a testament to years of collective action through radical collaboration which is changing guidelines, funding, and national policy. Congratulations to everyone who left their egos at the door, in order to achieve together what no single organization can do alone: 1000 Days Fund ACHVO-K, Amani Global Works ,Catholic Relief Services, cmmb, Community Partners International, Dhulikhel Hospital, D-tree, Stanford Center for Health Education, Digital Medic, Dimagi, FOCCAD, Integrate Health, Khushi Baby, Last Mile Health, Living Goods, Lwala Community Alliance, Medic, mothers2mothers, Muso, MOTHER HEALTH INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATED, NAMA WELLNESS COMMUNITY CENTRE (NAWEC)), Nyaya Health Nepal, Partners In Health, Pivot Works, Inc., Possible, Safari Doctors, TIP Global Health, Village HopeCore International, Village Health Works, VillageReach, Wandikweza, Maya Health Alliance | Wuqu' Kawoq ; thousands of CHW members; and hundreds of allies.
