Every year, approximately 56.8 million individuals need palliative care, with the majority located in low- and middle-income nations. Globally, just 14% of individuals requiring palliative care are currently accessing it.

Hospice Ethiopia works to enhance the availability and accessibility of palliative care in Ethiopia. In our regional projects, we train healthcare professionals and support the integration of palliative care services in specialized university hospitals and regional hospitals that serve a large portion of society.
