CARING FOR LIVES
We are dedicated to advancing critical care medicine and nursing in underserved regions of the world in accordance with internationally recognized standards, as we believe that providing care to critically ill patients is an ethical obligation rooted in fundamental human rights.
As part of our commitment, we focus on two areas of expertise: improving perioperative care for patients — especially children — with congenital or acquired heart disease (Cardiac Critical Care), and enhancing early detection and targeted intensive care (including safe anaesthesia) for patients of all ages who are in a serious or life-threatening condition (Emergency Critical Care).
To achieve sustainable structural progress, our efforts — alongside the provision of medical assistance — are anchored in knowledge transfer, the establishment of local training facilities, and the promotion of applied research projects.
As a nonprofit and independent foundation, ROBINAID is not bound by commercial interests nor subject to government influence. We ensure that our services are freely and fully accessible to everyone — without any form of discrimination.
“Where you are born should not determine whether you live, or whether you die.”
Paul David Hewson (Bono)
In Sub-Saharan Africa …
about 95 % of the children suffering on congenital or rheumatic heart disease do not have access to proper care
about 85 % of the population doesn’t have access to life-saving emergency and critical care services
about 75 % of the population doesn’t even have access to basic surgery and safe anaesthesia

“Being a mother, I know what a privilege it is that my children grow up safe, without fear. And being a journalist I know that children in many countries are the first victims of poverty, illness, war, terror, and expulsion. This is why I am committed to humanitarian aid as an Ambassador of ROBINAID.” read more
