H3D Foundation

The H3D Foundation is a South African non-profit organization established to support the Holistic Drug Discovery and Development (H3D) Centre at the University of Cape Town. It focuses on building drug discovery capacity in Africa and facilitating the development of innovative medicines for infectious diseases like malaria, tuberculosis, and antimicrobial resistance. The foundation acts as a bridge between academic research and the global pharmaceutical industry, aiming to address health challenges that disproportionately impact the African continent. Through strategic partnerships and workforce development, it seeks to create a sustainable ecosystem for pharmaceutical R&D across Africa. By integrating world-class science with local expertise, the foundation helps advance candidates from discovery through early clinical development.
