Physician-researchers at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital founded Solthis in 2003. We have since operated based on a sustainable, long-term approach to address public health issues in limited-resource countries.
Solthis is comprised of committed health and development professionals who specialize in:
1. a scientific and empirical approach that seeks cost-effective solutions adapted to realities in the field2. mobilizing multidisciplinary experts from Northern and Southern nations in order to address all dimensions of health issues: medical, social, economic, or political
Solthis bases its interventions on the principle of non-substitution: we accompany but we do not replace.
The fragility of health systems in these countries, epidemics, and the lack of human and financial resources require long-term responses. This is why we've developed an intervention strategy based on a global approach to health issues and strengthening all elements of health systems: men and women, institutions, networks, and technologies.
