The International Religious Health Assets Programme

The International Religious Health Assets Programme (IRHAP) is a global initiative that recognizes and promotes the valuable contributions of religious organizations and communities to health and well-being. It explores how faith-based groups provide healthcare, emotional support, and social services, often filling gaps in formal healthcare systems. By identifying these assets, IRHAP encourages collaboration between religious groups and health sectors to improve health outcomes. The programme aims to foster understanding, enhance resource sharing, and integrate faith-based approaches into broader health strategies while respecting diverse beliefs and practices.
