Organization Name
Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief (CPAR)
Organization Mandate
CPAR was founded in 1984 by Canadian physician Mark Doidge, in response to the extreme famine and poor health conditions faced by Ethiopian refugees in Sudan. Their work started out as emergency relief in the form of food aid and medical intervention, but has since evolved into an international development organization, committed to building healthy communities in Africa. They develop primary health care, water and sanitation, income generation, peace building, emergency assistance, natural resource management and food security programs.
