Care on wheels, across Jordan.
Supporting and Advancing Health Assistance for vulnerable children and women — free medical and dental services, delivered where they are needed most.
SAHA is a joint initiative led by Progetto Sud ETS, with the Order of Malta Jordan NGO as co-applicant and JOHUD — the Jordanian Hashemite Fund for Human Development — as operational partner. Together we strengthen access to essential healthcare for vulnerable, low-income, rural, and refugee communities, with a clear focus on women and children aged 6–50.
The project enhances the Mobile Medical Unit — originally provided by the Order of Malta and operated by JOHUD — to deliver integrated, free medical services including dental care, screening, and minor treatments, alongside prevention and community health awareness.
