Where we work
Programs are added only as local partnerships, clinical readiness, continuity, and governance are confirmed.
Planning phase
The planned initial program is centred on cataract and strabismus care, with patient education, professional training, and postoperative follow-up. Site readiness, equipment, staffing, medications, anesthesia, regulatory requirements, and continuity plans must be confirmed before delivery.
Future programs
New locations should be considered against transparent criteria rather than added for visibility alone.
A clearly defined, locally validated access or capacity gap.
Committed local clinical and operational leaders with decision-making authority.
Appropriate facilities, equipment, staffing, medication, referral, and emergency pathways.
Postoperative care, complication management, follow-up, and longer-term referral options.
Mutually agreed education, mentorship, research, or systems-strengthening objectives.
A transparent budget that does not shift hidden costs or unsustainable obligations to local partners.
Host-country organizations
Use the partnership inquiry to describe local priorities, current capacity, patient pathways, and the type of collaboration being considered.
