VISION AND MISSION
Mission
It is the mission of Dental Health Without Borders (Tandsundhed Uden Grænser) to work to promote health, extend preventive dental care, and provide emergency treatment where there is a distinct need. Dental Health Without Borders is a humanitarian organisation that collaborates with well-established organisations in developing countries, on joint projects with a focus on health promotion.
Vision
It is the vision of Dental Health Without Borders to improve the general and oral health of the most vulnerable in developing countries, and thus contribute to a higher quality of life for the individual, free from dental pain. Our vision is also to promote a local appreciation of the fact that, with small means, you can have and maintain healthy teeth throughout your life. Furthermore our vision is to actively contribute to capacity building and sustainable development in the countries in which we work.
At home it is our vision to educate the Danish public about the work of Dental Health Without Borders in developing countries and the effects that dental disease and dental pain can have on some of the most disadvantaged people of the world.
