L'organizzazione

  • Nome: Medici con l'Africa CUAMM
  • Sede: Italy, Padova
  • Website: https://www.mediciconlafrica.org/
  • Profilo: Medici con l’Africa Cuamm è la prima ONG in campo sanitario riconosciuta in Italia e la più grande organizzazione sanitaria italiana per la promozione e la tutela del diritto alla salute delle popolazioni africane.

    Nata nel 1950, nel suo nome è racchiuso il legame con questo continente, l’Africa, in cui appaiono concentrati e al massimo grado i problemi della sofferenza, della povertà e della disuguaglianza. Medici con l’Africa (e non per l’Africa) esprime la scelta di condividere con l’altro, che vuol dire partecipazione profonda, scambio, sforzo in comune, lavorare e soffrire insieme.

    Attualmente Medici con l’Africa Cuamm opera in Angola, Costa d'Avorio, Etiopia, Mozambico, Repubblica Centrafricana, Sierra Leone, Sud Sudan, Tanzania e Uganda con interventi di cooperazione sanitaria articolati in attività ospedaliere e territoriali, prevalentemente in aree rurali. Realizza progetti fortemente integrati nel tessuto sanitario e sociale del paese, in uno stile di dialogo con le autorità pubbliche e le istituzioni religiose locali.

    In ciascuno di questi paesi, una robusta base di interventi, stabili e duraturi, supporta in modo coordinato progetti su aree specifiche (formazione, tutela materno-infantile, disabilità, ecc.) e interventi verticali, di diretto contrasto a grandi pandemie (Aids, tubercolosi, malaria).
