Moving Health is a nonprofit that builds motorcycle ambulances to provide emergency transport networks in areas that do not have any. The organization finished its pilot in May of 2022 and is focusing on expansion and creating a sustainable business model that can help Moving Health grow across West Africa.

Emily Young is the co-founder and CEO of Moving Health. She started Moving Health with the idea that every family should be connected to medical care when they need it most, after being introduced to a Tanzanian NGO Partner by MIT’s D-Lab. Over the past 6 years she has been using human centered design to redefine emergency healthcare, specifically for pregnant women and new mothers. Emily holds a bachelor of science degree from MIT in Mechanical Engineering, with a concentration on global product development.
