The Aga Khan Health Services operate facilities in Kenya and Tanzania that provide health care to over 700,000 patients per year.
The AKDN works in some of the poorest and most remote areas of the planet to help people gain better access to quality healthcare services. It operates one of the largest non-profit private healthcare systems in the developing world – and has maintained one for over 100 years. By running community health projects and training thousands of nurses, midwives and doctors whose skills in turn transform healthcare systems – as well as conducting globally recognised operational and scientific research – the AKDN endeavours to ensure the highest level of health and well-being.
