Mission statement
hmswiss is a non-profit organisation that connects people through homeopathy and facilitates sustainable projects in the field of development cooperation in the healthcare sector. Since its foundation in 2002, we at hmswiss are committed to working independently of political, religious, ideological and ethnicaffiliations.
Our vision is to positively impact the health of people in need both in the short and long term so that they can lead a self-determined life. We focus geographically on English-speaking Africa.
We see the use of homeopathy and local, traditional healing methods, especially herbal medicine, as a supplement to government sponsored medical care. Especially in countries with poor healthcare, we can make a valuable contribution with our services, particularly where poverty, war or disasters make it difficult for people to access medical care.
With training and further education in homeopathy, we empower interested individuals from local communities to practise their profession on a sustainable basis. Where traditional healing methods are available, we support practitioners to revive them and incorporate them into their own work.
hmswiss engages with local project partners to ensure that the aid is delivered efficiently, effectively and in accordance with the cultural context. Our work contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular «3 – Health and well-being», «4 – Quality education» and «5 – Gender equality».
