What we do

## Three connected ways to make care last.

Founded in 2016 and registered as a charitable NGO in Armenia, VIVA brings together volunteer doctors, partner organizations, and institutional supporters to address healthcare gaps that the public system cannot close alone. We operate across three program areas (Healthcare access, Building medical capacity, and Community support), with a permanent focus on communities in Armenia's rural and border regions.

01

### Healthcare access

Direct care, equipment, supplies, and targeted patient support.

02

### Medical capacity

Training and knowledge exchange for physicians and nurses.

03

### Community support

Practical help for displaced and vulnerable people and institutions.

Built in Armenia

## Local knowledge. Practical response. Transparent partnership.

VIVA began in April 2016 with an urgent delivery of medical supplies and ambulances. Today the organisation connects donors and partners with healthcare needs in Armenia’s regions.
