Kybele creates healthcare partnerships. We bring US, Canadian, Australian and European healthcare professionals together to work in teams that travel to host countries. Once there, we work along side doctors and nurses in their home environments. Kybele team members donate their time and experience to provide hands-on training in techniques that improve healthcare safety. Our goal is to prevent childbirth related injury and death which affect millions of women and newborns each year. We integrate the doctors we train into the teams that go to other countries, promoting a spirit of equality and cooperation within our global network.
Our Accomplishments
Since 2004, Kybele has conducted medical training in Turkey, Croatia, Ghana, Georgia, Armenia, Romania, Egypt, Mongolia and Brazil. Kybele has sponsored 16 major in-country medical conferences and has trained hundreds of doctors and nurses. Kybele has received national television and newspaper coverage in each host country, demonstrating the importance of the Kybele mission.
Kybele programs have enlisted 251 medical volunteers from 55 institutions in 8 countries worldwide including anesthesiologists, obstetricians, neonatologists, internists, nurses and midwifes.
Kybele volunteers have donated more than $2,000,000 in educational materials, textbooks, medication and equipment to host countries.
