Emms International
International NGO from the United Kingdom
Emms is Scotland’s longest-serving international healthcare charity. We were set up by healthcare professionals in 1841 to bring high-quality healthcare to the communities that need it most. Because we believe that the benefits of better healthcare go far beyond simply better health. We work with local partners to establish and strengthen healthcare facilities. Training medical professionals, expanding palliative care, and reducing the personal and social impacts of disease. Building facilities, services, and skills that last.

|---|---|---|
| 2015 | €350,000 | €350,000 |
Amounts committed each year by the European Commission to the organisation (contracts and grants), from the EU Financial Transparency System. A commitment often covers several project years and, in consortia, may include shares of other partners. They are not income for the year and should not be compared directly with the accounts.

They include funds passed on to local partners. Not all donors name the recipient of their payments, so figures may be incomplete; EU funds are in their own section.
Spending on declared projects (IATI)
Only the projects the organisation publishes on IATI: usually a fraction of its total spending (median 14% in our checks).
