Stichting Farmacie Mondiaal

What Stichting Farmacie Mondiaal does

Stichting Farmacie Mondiaal is a Dutch nonprofit foundation (stichting) founded in 1979 and headquartered in Spijkenisse, Netherlands, with a secondary contact address in Woerden. Its mission is to facilitate pharmaceutical knowledge transfer worldwide, with a primary focus on healthcare providers and universities in developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. The organization operates through small-scale projects that combine financial donations, knowledge transfer, and network introductions, working with partners in Senegal, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burkina Faso, and Gambia.

The foundation's offering is not a technology product but a programmatic portfolio of knowledge-transfer initiatives. Its flagship codified product was a one-year pharmacy assistant training program at the Institut Superieur de Promotion de la Sante in Ziguinchor, Senegal, which trained approximately 7 students per year and was concluded in 2024. The foundation also supports curriculum development and provides donated equipment to pharmacy schools including the University of Dodoma (Tanzania) and the Kilimanjaro School of Pharmacy (Moshi, Tanzania). Distribution runs through direct partner engagement, a website-based e-commerce store for sponsorship products (€95 monthly or €1,140 annual sponsorship of a Senegal pharmacy assistant student), and donations above €500 processed via direct bank transfer.

The revenue model is donation-based, with one-time gifts, recurring annual contributions, and sponsorship products. The organization is governed by a volunteer board (chairman Rob Linde plus board members Fred Blokzijl, Frans Bosman, Richard van Slobbe, Blessing Odigie, and Jacky), with 11 personnel in total, and is embedded in the Dutch pharmacy community through KNMP congress participation and KNPSV student workshops. It is part of the informal Pharmacists Without Borders international network with sister organizations in Brazil, Chile, Germany, and Sweden.
