TerraGraphics International Foundation (TIFO) is an interdisciplinary team of scientists that applies environmental cleanup and health intervention methodologies to help low and middle-income countries affected by mining, recycling sites, industrial operations, and legacy sites. TIFO’s work addresses environmental health issues in low-income countries that have inherited environmental diseases exported from high-income nations. The struggles to achieve healthy communities are real; their cleanup model includes community engagement; training and employing local workers; adapting proven interventions to local socio-economic realities; securing diverse funding for activities; and including responsible government and industry contributions that are sustainable and attentive to the underlying poverty that facilitated the original polluting activities.
