LifeNet partners with community health centers to build their medical and administrative capacity and connect them with pharmaceuticals and equipment. By strengthening local capacity in every link of the healthcare delivery chain, we can transform primary care for Africa’s poor. LN's conversion franchise platform for primary care health centers is designed for impact, scale and sustainability, drawing on business principles to build in-country capacity and generate long-term effect.
