IFESH operates health, conflict mitigation, education and community development programs in sub-Saharan Africa.

What We Do

Since 1981, we have been implementing self-help partnership projects focusing on impacting poor and vulnerable populations. We specialize in education systems, health, community development and conflict mitigation. We achieve our goals by working with:

• African governments at the local, state and national levels
• International donors and U.S. government agencies
• Civil society, including local communities and community based organizations
• The private sector

We currently operate and support projects in 12 sub-Saharan African countries including Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Djibouti, Ghana, Guinea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal and South Africa.
