4he story of ALIMA began in 2009 in Niger
While the entire medical profession witnessed an alarming peak of acute malnutrition and increasing infant mortality rates, the health structures for managing malnutrition were becoming increasingly rare. The year before, many international NGOs had been expelled from the country
Local NGOs were the only ones left to act, but they lacked resources
From these conditions came the idea to create a new model of humanitarian organization: an African medical alliance connecting national NGOs and international research institutes. ALIMA was born. Since the beginning of this adventure, ALIMA has treated more than 10 million people in 14 countries around the world, mainly in Africa.
