Partners In Health was founded in 1987 to provide a preferential option for the poor in health care, and has since become a global leader in the struggle for health and social justice. As PIH explains, "[our] conviction that health care is a human right stems from our service to vulnerable communities and their daily struggle with the grim realities of poverty. The Institute for Health and Social Justice (IHSJ) is the advocacy and policy arm of Partners In Health. The mission of the IHSJ is to analyze the impact of poverty and inequality on health, and to use these findings to educate and train students, academics, donors, policy makers, and lay people."
