Operation Fistula focuses narrowly on ending obstetric fistula by supporting surgeons and the local health systems that enable fistula repair in low-resource settings. Its giving is distinctive because it uses unrestricted, performance-based funding tied to submitted treatment data, emphasizing measurable surgical output and quality improvement rather than broad program grants. The organization appears to work primarily in low-income countries, with known geographic emphasis in places like Madagascar and Senegal.
Invite-only, performance-based unrestricted funding for fistula surgeons; grants are disbursed after treatment data is submitted and validated, suggesting a results-linked, ongoing support model rather than open calls or one-time project grants.
This appears to be an invite-only program with no public application process. Prospective partners should demonstrate active fistula repair capacity, reliable case reporting, and a clear ability to document patient outcomes and quality metrics in low-resource settings.
