We have been honored with the 2025 RANME Solidarity Cooperation Award, presented by the Royal National Academy of Medicine of Spain. The award recognizes our 20 years of work in health and social cooperation. It also highlights the work of nonprofit organizations that improve the health and quality of life of people in especially vulnerable settings.
We receive this recognition with gratitude and a sense of responsibility. At ADS, every project grows out of a deep conviction that health, water, education and human dignity are not aspirations: they are rights we must help guarantee. Seeing an institution like RANME value this commitment encourages us to keep moving forward with even more strength.
This award does not mark an individual achievement, but a path we have traveled together with many people and communities: health professionals, local teams, volunteers, donors, institutional partners and, above all, the families and students in the places where we work. They are at the heart of everything we do.
We know there is still a lot to do. That is why this recognition is not a finish line, but a boost. It commits us to keep working with rigor and respect, strengthening projects that bring about real and lasting change.
We thank the Royal National Academy of Medicine of Spain for the trust it has placed in our work, and we celebrate that cooperation, understood as an act of shared responsibility and justice, is being recognized today.
We carry on.
For health. For dignity. For people.
