Healthcare projects

Fundación Jesús Serra is collaborating with Doctors Without Borders to cover healthcare needs in developing countries

At Fundación Jesús Serra we commit to projects in health centres in developing countries, with the aim of reducing child mortality and improving medical 7training.

The Democratic Republic of Congo is going through a period of political instability. Armed rebel groups, which have occupied the area, make it difficult to provide healthcare services, leaving the population exposed to epidemics. To resolve this internal conflict, the foundation and Doctors Without Borders have invested efforts and deployed healthcare personnel to the Mulungu area. 

The main task of this operation was to provide care to the local population, particularly the most vulnerable: children and pregnant women. To do this, hospital care is offered to the whole population at primary healthcare centres, at the mother and child care centre and at the Kigulube hospital. In addition, the installation of a solar plant has been proposed to ensure the necessary power supply. Thanks to this collaboration, we were able to provide care to 4,384 children, 395 mothers during childbirth and 224 people in need of surgery.

Looking to the future, we intend to provide assistance and healthcare in developing countries, with the aim of reducing child mortality and improving medical training.
