The RBIH's strategic Areas of Action

Across five interlinked areas of action (see diagram), expertise, experience, and innovative capacity are pooled to effectively help shape the vision of a fair and sustainable health care system. These areas of action build on successful pilot projects, which are developed further and scaled in a targeted manner. The focus is on areas with particular potential for sustainable change. The RBIH combines proven approaches with new ideas and promotes innovative solutions that sustainably improve health care delivery, prevention, and collaboration within the health care system. 

In addition, there is close collaboration with the Robert Bosch Stiftung’s other funding areas. For example, initiatives related to school health care are supported in collaboration with the education area.
