Description

1) Objective

The Dutch Albert Schweitzer Foundation (NASF) is a small fundraising organisation aimed at supporting projects that strive for sustainability and self-reliance. The Foundation is focused on small-scale local initiatives that significantly improve the development of health care and related issues mostly in Africa. The Foundation is convinced that good health is the foundation for sustainable poverty reduction. By focusing on the promotion of health and health care in the projects it supports, the Foundation seeks to contribute to sustainable development and self-reliance. 

At the Albert Schweitzer Fonds, they believe that innovation is key to solving some of the most pressing healthcare challenges across Sub-Saharan Africa. By “innovative,” they mean solutions that go beyond traditional methods. These embrace creativity, technology, new approaches or community-led solutions to make healthcare more accessible, affordable, and effective.
