Welcome to our Foundation - Novartis Foundation for Sustainable Development

Description

The fact that there are still 2.8 billion people who have to live on less than two US dollars a day, demands a contribution from all actors in society – including the private sector

Why is there a Novartis Foundation for Sustainable Development?

The activities of the Novartis Foundation are a logical progression from the engagement of Ciba, Geigy and Sandoz in development policy and humanitarian issues.

The fact that there are still 2.8 billion people in the world today who have to live on less than two US dollars a day, that 40 million people are suffering from HIV/AIDS, and that 14 million children die of avoidable diseases every year demands a lending hand from all relevant actors in society – including the private sector. This is also the conviction of today’s management of the Novartis Group, which is sole sponsor of the Foundation.
