HealthNet TPO, is a global aid agency with roots in The Netherlands that has been working on restoring and strengthening health care systems in areas disrupted by war or disaster for the last 27 years. In these areas people are facing the immense task of rebuilding their society, while suffering from poverty, diseases and emotional consequences of conflict. As humanitarians we use health both as a goal and a means: the goal is to reach accessible health care for all; by working together with local communities we use health as a means to bring people together and to restore mutual trust.
