OUR VALUES

At Medical Aid Films, our values guide everything we do — from how we make films, to how we work with communities and partners, to the stories we choose to tell.

  • Purpose with Impact

    We are driven by the belief that film can save lives. Every story we tell, every partnership we form, and every decision we make is guided by our mission to improve health outcomes for women, children, and communities globally.

  • Partnership at the Core

    We never work alone. We collaborate with local organisations, Ministries of Health, global NGOs, and healthcare workers — ensuring every film is grounded in real-world insight and co-created with the people it’s designed to serve.

  • Equity and Inclusion

    We believe access to health information is a human right. Our work focuses on reaching the most underserved — especially women, girls, and frontline health workers — across diverse languages, literacy levels, and geographies.

  • Creative Integrity

    We hold ourselves to the highest standards — in both storytelling and medical accuracy. Our films are peer-reviewed, locally validated, and crafted with care to be clear, respectful, and culturally relevant.

  • Innovation with Purpose

    We use new technologies where they add value — from VR and animation to mobile and social platforms — always with the aim of expanding reach, improving learning, and making health knowledge more accessible.

  • Learning and Listening

    We believe in putting audiences first. That means listening to communities, testing what works, learning from what doesn’t, and continually improving how we create and share our films.

Contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals

Our work directly supports the UN SDGs:

SDG 3: Good Health and Well-Being

We strengthen health systems and improve access to essential health education, especially for women and children.

SDG 5: Gender Equality

We create content that empowers women and girls with knowledge about their bodies, rights, and choices.

SDG 4: Quality Education

We support lifelong learning for healthcare workers and communities through visual, inclusive, and practical education tools.
