Evidence for Health.

Action for Communities.
Salus Mundi is dedicated to advancing public health through rigorous research, the implementation of preventive interventions, programme evaluation, and capacity building. Based in the heart of the Swiss Health Valley—one of the world’s leading ecosystems for biomedical science and innovation—we collaborate with partners ranging from individual researchers and local communities to universities, health systems, and international organisations.
Rigorous evaluations and field-based studies that assess the real-world impact of health programmes and interventions for governments, foundations, and international organisations.
Structured training in research methods, biostatistics, scientific writing, and evidence appraisal—building the skills institutions need to produce and use evidence independently.

“In a world where the need for rigorous, trustworthy health research far outstrips the capacity to produce it, Salus Mundi was created to contribute work that is methodologically sound, scientifically honest, and consequential for the people it serves.”
