One quarter of the world’s population - one billion people
- have no access to proper healthcare. Preventable or treatable infectious diseases
cause half of all deaths in the poor countries. Without good health, children cannot
learn properly and adults cannot work to ensure their families are properly provided
for. Islamic Aid’s health projects focus on mothers and children, who often
are the most vulnerable to disease and malnutrition. Our initiatives are aimed at
increasing the capacity of our local partners to deliver quality health services
by improving healthcare facilities, training local health professionals and providing
medicines, medical equipment and other support.

125 million children around the world do not have the chance of
going to school. 
Poor people
are often powerless to influence decisions taken by their own governments. Islamic
Aid gives poor people a voice.
