Healthcare For All by 2015: A Global Campaign

Document Actions

Source: HIFA
Date added: 2008-08-22
Sector: Health

Tens of thousands of people die every day, often for the simple reason that the parent, carer or health worker lacks the information and knowledge they need to save them.

The HIFA2015 Goal

By 2015, every person worldwide will have access to an informed healthcare provider

Who are we?

HIFA2015 involves more than 1500 people from 110 countries worldwide. Members include health workers, publishers, librarians, information technologists, researchers, social scientists, journalists, policy-makers and others - all working together towards the HIFA2015 goal.

Several leading health organisations have expressed their support for HIFA2015, and many are providing financial and/or in-kind assistance.

What do we do?

HIFA2015 is a campaign and a knowledge network. Members interact by two email discussion forums: HIFA2015 and CHILD2015. Together we are building the HIFA2015 Knowledge Base, a picture of information needs and how to meet them. Membership is free and open to all.
