Billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates is in India for his third visit in three years. The trip coincides with the Gates Foundation’s 25th anniversary, with its Board of Trustees meeting in the Global South for the first time.
“The foundation has been working in the country for more than two decades, partnering with the government, researchers, and entrepreneurs to improve health and development,” Gates wrote on his blog Gates Notes. “Today, India is home to some of the most impactful programs we’ve contributed to, from disease eradication and sanitation to women’s empowerment and digital financial services. This trip will give me a chance to see what’s working, what’s changing, and what’s next—for India and the foundation.”
