THINK is a non-profit organisation committed to reducing health inequalities through research, innovation, implementation, and knowledge sharing. Our vision is bold: we are working towards a world where health inequality no longer limits a person’s ability to lead a fulfilling life. At THINK, we believe that health is a fundamental human right, and we are dedicated to building a future where everyone has access to the quality healthcare they need to thrive.

**What We Do**:
We focus on marginalised and vulnerable populations who face heightened health risks due to their circumstances. We recognise that poor health not only impacts individual well-being but also undermines socioeconomic development and human potential. By addressing the challenges of health inequality, we concentrate on six interlinked areas: infectious diseases, social factors of health, mental health, non-communicable diseases, nutritional health, and climate health.

**How We Do It**:
Through a combination of research, clinical trials, health systems strengthening, and capacity development, THINK is uniquely positioned to tackle health challenges holistically. Our approach ensures that we create lasting impact in both local communities and on a globally.

THINK collaborates with local communities, government consortia, and international funders to deliver care and drive innovative projects that are making a real difference.
