Our Impact
Imamia Medics International works to promote access to quality health care and education globally. To do this successfully, we need to continuously measure our effectiveness and look at ways we can improve.
We create and apply various systems and methodologies to assess the nature of our global impact. In addition to project specific assessments, a vehicle for measuring our overall impact is through an evaluation against health targets in the global health arena.

Moving forward with Sustainable Development Goals
In the post 2015 era of the new 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, global targets have improved to include more health targets including non-communicable disease as well as a greater understanding of the intersectionality of health into other sectoral impacts. As we move forward, IMI will shift to using the UN SDGs and associated targets.
