The Afrihealth Optonet Association (AHOA) is a global membership Network and Think-tank uniquely composed of both civil society and community-focused organizations. By harnessing the experience, resources, and reach of its more than 2,300 duly registered Member/Partner organizations from 106 (One Hundred and Six) countries, and the input of the experts and stakeholders among its 38,000 plus members Google Group, AHOA has become a third-sector global player, partner, project/programme developer, implementer, monitor and reporter on the pulse and state of the civil society and rural/poor urban communities from all the continents; in all issues relating to better health-for-all and sustainable development, and the measures needed to achieve and safeguard them.
