ReAct Latin America

Vision

Based on the knowledge and the values of the native peoples of our Abya Yala (Earth in Full Maturity), we believe that there is one life at the same time
in many forms. Human beings are a thread in the fabric of life as are plants, animals and bacteria.

We have to protect this life as a whole since within the origin of infectious diseases and antibacterial resistance is the rupture of this delicate and fascinating equilibrium.

Mission

That current and future generations should have access to effective prevention and treatment of bacterial infections as part of their right to health.

Activities
