About us
Building bridges for stronger beginnings.
African 1000 Days Action USA exists to mobilize U.S. philanthropy, expertise, and partnerships behind locally led African solutions for women, newborns, and young children.
Who we are
We are a U.S.-based platform for partnership. We connect people and institutions in the United States with African leaders who understand their communities, health systems, opportunities, and priorities. Our role is to help useful resources move with discipline, respect, and accountability without shifting authority away from those closest to the work.
Our mission
To mobilize U.S. philanthropy, expertise, and partnerships in support of locally led African solutions that improve the health, development, and wellbeing of women, newborns, and children from pregnancy through age five.
