FAIRMED is a Swiss foundation that traces its roots to Leprahilfe Emmaus Schweiz. Since 1959, it works to ensure fair access to health care for people living in poverty and to improve health outcomes for those affected by various diseases. Its vision is a world where leprosy and other poverty-related illnesses no longer lead to discrimination on the basis of illness or disability. The organization concentrates its resources on Africa south of the Sahara and South Asia, focusing on Cameroon, the Central African Republic, India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal. Based in Bern, in the canton of Bern, Switzerland, FAIRMED operates as a mid-sized nonprofit in the non-profit health sector.
