FAH bridges the worlds of health and finance to enable new and additional investments in health systems with primary and community health at their core. Since its inception, FAH has mobilized close to $660 million towards primary and community health efforts. Additionally, FAH has supported the recognition and institutionalization of more than 450,000 community health workers (CHWs). MapBiomas was founded in 2015 as a collaborative initiative in Brazil to use advanced technology and data to monitor land use and cover changes across the country. Today, MapBiomas supports over 20 geographic and thematic initiatives across the world, producing maps with precision and speed that would have been unfeasible and prohibitively expensive in the past. By integrating satellite imagery, machine learning (ML), cloud computing and contributions from universities, civil society and technology start-ups, MapBiomas initiatives provide detailed annual reports on deforestation, agricultural expansion and other transformations in natural landscapes. Its comprehensive datasets are crucial for understanding the impacts of human activities on ecosystems and provide an essential tool for policy-makers, researchers and environmental advocates.Year founded: Headquartered: Regions represented:Groups assembled: Organizations involved: Constituents represented: MapBiomas Producing free, open and interactive land use maps for tropical forests worldwide2016 2015Nairobi, Kenya 16 countries Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Ethiopia, Haiti, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Mali, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Togo, Senegal, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe22 national and sub-national governments FAH convenes governments, donors, private sector companies and communities to address systemic financing challenges to scaling primary and community health programmes 450,000+ community health workers have been recognized in policy and practice through FAH’s efforts 500,000+ users access MapBiomas annually, from governments, financial institutions, agricultural companies and NGOs~100 organizations are members of the MapBiomas network20+ geographic and thematic initiatives comprised of independent local organizations MapBiomas is fully distributed with no central headquarters.
