THINK South Africa

THINK South Africa THINK is an NGO that aims to improve the quality of life of people around the world. We are a values-based organisation.

THINK is a non-profit research organization founded in 2013 in order to conduct first class clinical research aimed to alleviate suffering from Tuberculosis and HIV. We have since expanded to include Training and Health Systems Strengthening. We collaborate with academic institutions, global partners, and pharmaceutical companies to discover new tools, build capacity and support the Department of

Health to improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment. We care about the outcomes of our research and are passionate about wanting to improve medical care on a national and global scale, and have been fortunate to be involved in policy changing work. We also care about the individuals we are and recognize the importance of teamwork. While our work is ‘no nonsence’ we respond to values such as care for people and outcomes, kicking the paradigm and passion for making a difference. About 300 researchers and staff are currently employed across a number of clinical trial sites, programme offices, health care facilities and communities across 7 of the 9 provinces in South Africa.

📢 Today is Equal Research Day, a moment to spotlight the urgent need for inclusive and equitable research.

For decades, women were excluded from clinical trials. In fact, it wasn’t until 1993 that the U.S. mandated the inclusion of women in clinical research. In 2025, we are still living with the consequences: misdiagnosed conditions, ineffective treatments, and dangerous gaps in data for women.

At THINK, we believe that good science is inclusive science. We are committed to challenging systemic biases in research and advocating for a future where every individual is represented in the evidence that guides our care.

Because clinical research should work for everyone.

🧬 Equal Research Day is not just a reminder of how far we’ve come, it’s a call to action to keep pushing forward.

The gender health gap is real. Let’s close it.

This World Health Day, we’re reminded that health should not be a privilege, but a right.

That's why at THINK, we’re working across Southern Africa to close the healthcare gap and reduce inequalities, ensuring that even the most underserved communities have access to the quality care they need to live full, healthy lives.

From strengthening local health systems to driving innovative research, we’re committed to building a future where everyone has the chance to thrive so that by 2040, zero people should die from a curable disease.

🌍 Health is a Human Right 🌍

48% of people in Africa lack access to quality healthcare. As a member of THINK Network, we’re tackling health inequality through local expertise, innovation, and collaboration, aligned with SDGs 3 and 10 in South Africa. 💛

Our vision? Zero deaths from curable diseases by 2040. Together, we can build a future where health inequality no longer determines quality of life. ✨
