Our primary focus country is Eritrea; since 2021, individual initiatives in Albania, Afghanistan, Tanzania, Bhutan, and Ukraine have been added.

Small moments of happiness – “Auf Kurs” is here
Many of us were fortunate enough to be born into a developed and peaceful society. However, for many children worldwide, this is by no means a given. Illness, poverty, and crises define their daily lives.
Knowledge that protects lives
In early November, a seven-member team of doctors, midwives, and nursing professionals was deployed in Mendefera, Eritrea. The goal was to further improve medical care for mothers as well as premature and newborn infants and to strengthen obstetric and neonatal care in the long term.
