About us

Santé Arménie is a non-profit organization founded in 2020 under the French Law of Associations of 1901, in response to the urgent healthcare needs caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh). Supported by AGBU France, the organization brings together volunteer healthcare professionals from Europe to strengthen Armenia’s healthcare system through medical missions, training, and long-term partnerships.

One of the key directions of Santé Arménie is the Santé Arménie Medical Academy, created to provide high-quality, accessible, and sustainable medical education. All our trainers are dedicated volunteers—doctors, nurses, and specialists—who generously share their knowledge and experience with Armenian colleagues.

Since 2020, more than 10,000 healthcare professionals have participated in our educational activities, including online courses, webinars, in-person training sessions, and conferences. Through the Medical Academy, we are building lasting bridges between the Armenian and international medical communities.
