The Tafarki Foundation

 
"There is something inherently unsettling when compassionate hearts love Africa more than Africans. This love is flawed and can not be sustained."  

             Tafarki Kudaru

 

   

                                  

The Tafarki Foundation supports efforts aimed at helping Africa assure the health of its population. 

Africa's’ health system where in existence is overloaded.

With mounting challenges, such as the rising AIDS epidemic, the system is stressed. Yet assuring Africa’s health is one of the cardinal responsibilities of Africans, their leaders and allies.

Addressing this responsibility requires an updated, adequately trained and funded workforce and infrastructure.

Africans and their allies must focus their efforts towards prevention, promotion and protection of Africa’s health. A task largely delegated to Africa's allies. Consequently Africans and their leaders do not spend enough on these areas presently.

The Tafarki Foundation advocates that due to the limited resources, our efforts in Africa must be more tailored  not targeted.

Tailoring our efforts will require a public health system equipped to look at the current condition as an African problem first.

Locally available resources must be harnessed as a first step towards assuring Africa's health.  Where necessary, allies must be involved in a deliberate and relevant manner, not as donors, but as equal partners in assuring Africa's health.

The Tafarki Foundation is an attempt to assure the health of our communities.
