Families in rural Cambodia are trading harmful wood fires for cleaner cooking methods—saving lives and the environment. Read more. CHAI is a nonprofit global health organization committed to building a world in which everyone is able to live a healthy and fulfilling life.
CHAI was founded on the belief that no one, no matter where they live, should die because they cannot access healthcare.
Since our founding in , our scope has expanded, but our objective remains the same: to save lives. We now work with governments, donors, and other partners on more than 20 programs in over 35 countries across Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
We operate at the nexus of government, business, and health to catalyze more equitable access to healthcare. We do this through the roles CHAI is uniquely positioned to play: as a Market Shaper by driving down the price of drugs, as a Trusted Strategic Partner by helping to build strong health policies, and as an Operational Partner by turning those policies into action.
When these roles come together, we can act as an Ecosystem Catalyst, reimagining what is possible to have an outsized impact. We operate across multiple health areas, with a global team of science, business, and technical experts supporting the entire organization. We will apply our unique approach where it is most needed to save lives and improve health outcomes.
