WHO WE ARE
Noora Health’s mission is to improve outcomes and strengthen health systems by equipping family
caregivers with the skills they need to care for their loved ones. Founded in 2014, Noora Health turns
hospital hallways and waiting rooms into classrooms by tapping into the most compassionate
resources available for the patient’s care: their own family.
With the support of six state governments in India, the Government of Bangladesh, and large private
hospital systems, Noora Health has trained more than two million caregivers across 329 facilities. In
a cohort of patients, the program reduced post-surgical cardiac complications by 71%, maternal
complications by 12%, newborn complications by 16%, and newborn readmissions by 56%.
Noora Health was honored as a TED 2022 Audacious Project Grantee and recipient of the 2022 Skoll
Foundation Award for Social Innovation. Featuring Edith Elliott and Shahed Alam, our Co-Founders
and Co-CEOs, Noora Health’s mission took the spotlight at TED 2022 and was also featured in a 2022
Skoll video.
