Why Adduna?

Our inspiration for Adduna [AW-doo-na] comes from Senegal, a country where our founders maintain close ties. In the languages of Wolof and Pulaar, two languages commonly spoken in West Africa, àdduna means “world” or “life”. We picked this name not only as a nod to our connections to Senegal but also because we believe that everyone in the world deserves the right to live their healthiest life, whether they live in high-income countries or low-income settings. Our careers have been dedicated to advancing human health and our experience spans the local to the global level. We like the inclusivity that Adduna represents.

The verb adunar has a Latin origin, adding another dimension to our name. In Spanish, the verb adunar means to join or to unite. This meaning resonates with us, as we seek to join in partnership with our clients to advance their goals. 

We look forward to partnering with you.
