Partners In Health (PIH) is an international nonprofit public health organization founded in 1987 by Paul Farmer, Ophelia Dahl, Thomas J. White,[1] Todd McCormack, and Jim Yong Kim.[2][3]
Partners in Health provides healthcare in the poorest areas of developing countries.[4] It builds hospitals[5] and other medical facilities, hires and trains local staff, and delivers a range of healthcare, from in-home consultations to cancer treatments.[6] It also removes barriers to maintaining good health, such as dirty water or a lack of food, and strengthens the rights of the poor.[7] The approach trades charity for "accompaniment," which is described as a "dogged commitment to doing whatever it takes to give the poor a fair shake."[8] While many of its principles are rooted in liberation theology, the organization is secular.[9] It forms long-term partnerships with, and works on behalf of, local ministries of health.[10] PIH currently holds a 4 out of 4 stars rating from Charity Navigator, a nonprofit evaluator.[11]
