What we do
The funding programme Hospital Partnerships – Partners Strengthen Health was established by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Else Kröner-Fresenius Foundation as an important contribution for global health in the context of international collaboration. Since its start in 2016, the initiative has supported actors from medical and healthcare institutions in Germany in assisting their partners in low- and middle-income countries to build-up and implement health services. The focus of these programmes is on education and training. All medical areas and specialisations are represented. Twice per year, the programme publishes an award in the amount of 50.000 euros. Subsequent funding is also available.
Our partners are all experts: hospital managers, doctors, health scientists, midwives, nurses, public health specialists, microbiologists, laboratory technicians as well as medical technicians and administrators among others. They work together with their partners at eye-level and across national boundaries. Through this approach, health services can be improved in a targeted manner on the ground.
