Partnering to provide care for underserved populations The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 70% of medical equipment donations in Africa are unusable and inadequate. Together with IMEC, Philips demonstrated the value of sustainability by donating clinically viable medical equipment that would otherwise sit in a warehouse taking up space, costing money and time. Through these donations, IMEC and Philips created entire solutions for specific use enabling more than 92,000 people to be treated by clinicians in underprivileged communities. Philips has already improved the lives of 2.1 billion people in 2016, leading the way in sustainable operations and bringing healthcare to those that need it most.
