We are part of a movement for global health equity aimed at changing how health systems work and how technology powers those systems. Medic's global team of innovators is 90+ strong, dispersed across more than 14 countries, 32 cities, and all time zones. We create resources, build documentation, and offer support to a growing community of partners and builders working to improve health in the hardest-to-reach communities.

“My future is bright and I need to do something.”

That’s what led Immaculate to become a community health worker in Kenya.

For eight years she’s supported families, strengthened her community, and helped save lives.

Stories like hers are why the Community Health Toolkit exists.

As approaches, we’re celebrating the women who power community health: the CHWs, the implementers, the developers, the researchers, and the philanthropists.

Their voices shape the future of care.

That's why our vision for the CHT is centered around the many communities it serves. Because communities can only be as strong as the health of their women, and of the women who ensure their health.

📅 On March 10, Medic’s first female Co-Executive Directors are hosting a live fireside chat about what comes next.

Behind every leadership transition are real questions:
Who are the leaders?
What do they care about?
Where are we headed together?

That’s why Medic is hosting an open virtual conversation on March 10 with our new Co-Executive Directors and you.

This is a space to:
✔ Meet the leaders
✔ Hear what’s ahead for the Community Health Toolkit
✔ Ask questions and share your perspective

Whether you use a CHT app, build one, support implementation, or care deeply about community health, we would love for you to be there.

The Community Health Toolkit now supports over 180,000 community health workers (CHW) across 24 countries...and it’s still growing.

That scale comes with big questions. In our latest blog, we share how we’re strengthening the CHT to remain reliable, affordable, and locally owned as it becomes national infrastructure.

Because behind every system decision is a CHW who needs their app to work every day.

In February, Andra Blaj and Shreya Bhatt became our first Co-Executive Directors.

This isn’t just a leadership change. It's a reflection of what kind of organization we want to be: one that practices shared power, not just preaches it.

For 15 years, the Community Health Toolkit (CHT) has grown through collective effort and is now integral to community health systems in 24 countries.

Shared leadership signals what we believe: power should be distributed, communities should lead, and the women delivering care deserve representation at every level.

To our global community: thank you for being here.
To the health workers at our heart: we see you, and we're here to make sure the world does, too.

Read their message and join us on this journey.👏

We’re excited to share that Shreya Bhatt and Andra Blaj are stepping into the role of Co-Executive Directors at Medic, following a thoughtful and planned transition from Interim CEO Dykki Settle and our Board.

Dykki’s leadership over the past 18 months helped guide Medic through a period of both CHT growth, and global uncertainty. We’re deeply grateful for this service, and glad to share he’ll continue supporting the team before returning to the Board in April.

Together, Shreya and Andra step into this role with:
✨ over a decade of institutional knowledge
✨a shared commitment to openness and community
✨genuine care for the people and partners who make Medic what it is

This new co-leadership model reflects how we believe change happens best: together, and closer to the communities we serve.

While AI dominates headlines, its greatest promise often lies in everyday, real-world settings. In rural and , a community health worker’s ability to diagnose malaria quickly and confidently can mean the difference between life and death.

That’s why we’re teaming up with Audere, The Ministry of Health of Kenya and Ministry of Health- Uganda, with funding support from the Gates Foundation. Together, we’re integrating HealthPulse AI with the Community Health Toolkit (CHT) to empower health workers with the means to make more accurate malaria diagnoses.

This is where it matters most: saving lives on the frontlines.

Did you know your 'doom drawer' can actually do good?

This Giving Tuesday, you can give the gift of better health. When you donate an old or unused phone or tablet with us, it’s gone…✨for good.✨

It will be refurbished or responsibly recycled, helping Medic to equip health workers with technology to provide families like Tony's with timely, quality care – even in the most remote communities.

Even if the battery’s dead, your device can still power good health, globally.

So clear that drawer, support the planet, and strengthen healthcare where it’s needed most! 👏

Do you know the numbers that keep us up at night?

4.5 billion people can’t access basic healthcare. Meanwhile, 44 million tonnes of electronics have been thrown away, just this year.

Now the good news: we can address both these problems at once, and make Black Friday a little brighter.

📲 When you donate an old or unwanted phone or tablet with us, two things happen:

🌍 You protect the planet: Your device is responsibly reused or recycled.
💟 You support good health, globally: You enable us to put life-changing technology in the hands of health workers.

Healthy people. Healthy planet. And your old tech, gone for ✨ good. ✨

In Turkana County, Kenya, the terrain, isolation, and climate make access to food and health extremely fragile. With a Global Acute Malnutrition rate of nearly 22%, every action counts.

R-SWITCH is a partnership between Medic, the County Government of Turkana, UNICEF Kenya, International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), International Rescue Committee, Jomo Kenyatta University - JKUAT and more. Together we’re piloting a digital, community-based approach to help identify, refer, and treat malnourished children earlier.

This we're celebrating the transformative impact that digital health technology can make on child malnutrition
