Meet the team
The organizational culture within Health[e]Foundation is an open and positively driven atmosphere with a serious commitment to improving healthcare, especially in resource-limited settings. It is a small, flexible organization, with well-established contacts internally, as well as externally, with authors, local academia and institutes.
Team Amsterdam
The executive management team consists of the executive director and the managing director. They are responsible for daily governance and supervision. The executive team, together with the office staff in Amsterdam (project managers, an IT/web administrator and e-learning expert), are the core of Health[e]Foundation.
Health[e]Foundation is all about people. We have a perfect team to deliver our promise, as a global health foundation dedicated to training and education, to provide up-to-date knowledge and information on all aspects of health! - Fransje van der Waals, Executive Director Health[e]Foundation
