What We Do

Strengthening health workers and the systems that support them has been IntraHealth International’s core focus for 30 years. We define “health worker” in the broadest sense of the term: from nurses, midwives, and physicians to community volunteers. Our mission—to mobilize local talent for sustainable and accessible health care—also encompasses all of the individuals who support health workers in their jobs: from educators and software developers to health facility managers, lab technicians, and community leaders.

Our approach to improving health care calls for listening, analyzing, and collaborating with leaders and communities to develop the most effective solutions for a particular environment. Together, we support health workers to succeed, improve policies and systems for a strong workforce, and extend health services to meet communities’ needs. We bring the clinical and public health expertise needed to meet the specific health and social challenges everywhere we work.
