Habesha Health Mission

We aim to increase awareness of health information for Habesha people throughout the diaspora. This virtual platform provides culturally competent health education by assessing our community's health needs and creating resources specific to the Habesha community.

About

Habesha Health is a virtual platform dedicated to increasing awareness and addressing Habesha health disparities in the diaspora. This platform is designed for our Habesha community members to find and utilize information on Habesha healthcare providers as well as health education. We have come to realize that there is a huge desire for customized patient health information addressing various health issues that impact Habesha families both back home and in the diaspora including, but not limited to COVID-19, mental health, chronic disease management, and health literacy.

We are a team of multidisciplinary Habesha health professionals organically formed from our network. Our mission is to educate and empower by providing customized health information that tackle health disparities that exist in our own communities. We are hoping this platform can serve as a hub for the collection, creation, and curation of health content.
