AIF's low-cost, multi-award winning community-focused health intervention program, MANSI, tackles the disparities in the underprivileged population of India's access to high-quality, reasonably priced healthcare for mothers and newborns. In order to empower marginalized populations—such as tribal people, rural residents, and people living in remote areas—to make educated decisions about their health, MANSI collaborates with the government to improve public health services.
