Noora Health is a non-profit offering a scalable programme for delivering healthcare education and training within established healthcare systems. The programme provides basic yet vital healthcare knowledge and skills by training public healthcare providers at multiple levels, including those that are closest to the patient - family and community.
On a daily basis, Noora Health’s Care Companion Programme trains over 24 million caregivers and patients and more than 21 000 healthcare workers across India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Indonesia. It does this by integrating and collaborating with healthcare systems and governments to provide high-impact primary healthcare skills training to individuals and families. This helps family members become the cornerstone for patient recovery in healthcare facilities and at home.
We are investing in Noora Health as part of LGT VP’s health strategy which focuses on ensuring access to primary healthcare in India. We support Noora Health’s patient and community level engagement with public health systems in three ways.
In 2024, Noora Health trained over 21 800 healthcare workers in more than 12 100 medical facilities across four countries - Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Nepal - and also reached 16.4 million family and community caregivers and patients, more than double its original target of eight million.
We're honoured to join forces with LGT VP, a trusted organisation globally that's so aligned with our own values of health equity and accessibility, says Edith Elliott, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Noora Health.
LGT VP's support will directly strengthen the Noora Health foundation, from strategically building our operational capacity to meet the needs of our rapidly growing team, to playing a key role in achieving our ambitious advocacy goals for caregiving, says Shahed Alam, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Noora Health.
