Launched in 1977 by three intrepid researchers, PATH emerged as a groundbreaking health organization—a nonprofit committed to leveraging the expertise, resources, and innovations of private industry to enhance health outcomes for all.

The innovative model introduced by PATH revolutionized global perspectives on health and development, setting new standards in the field. Today, the organization continues to lead the way in pioneering efforts.

PATH is now harnessing the potential of data and digital tools, establishing unexpected partnerships spanning borders and sectors, and fortifying defenses against emerging disease threats and epidemics. It is also developing transformative models for healthcare delivery and nurturing innovation in communities worldwide. Through these endeavors, PATH aims to expand access to good health—and the accompanying benefits of employment and economic stability—to more people at an accelerated pace.
