About us

Our history

Aymara has developed a methodology to design a new way to effect change, to give easy access to mainstream health services to people who are invisible and neglected in society. Thanks to their commitment with the community, engagement and retention strategies, and a strong network of partners, the new model promotes social change by delivering an integral service while running an efficient and innovative ethical business.

Governance

To ensure good governance and member participation, our democratic model relies on the experience and good judgement of experts of any field. We are recruiting four non-executive directors who believe in mission-driven businesses and their efficiency and growth as a way to create positive change in society. AYMARA’s Board of Directors will be composed of six members who will meet four times a year.
