The AfSBT will achieve its intended Mission through the implementation of a range of support­ing Strategic Objectives. These objectives include:

• Developing and supporting the implementation of the AfSBT Step-wise Accreditation Programme that endorses operating standards of the highest quality for the practice of blood transfusion and takes cognisance of the disparate states of development of blood services in Africa.
• Developing and making available in Africa, the AfSBT Education and Training Programme that is appropriate for the practice of blood transfusion at international standard; courses are based on distance learning and e-learning technology and complement the AfSBT Step-wise Accreditation Programme.
• Designing and establishing distance learning technology to support and disseminate the education programmes and communication platforms of AfSBT. 
• Advocating improved blood programmes in African countries, to national authorities, international organisations, and other support groups.

• To increase public and professional awareness of voluntary and non-remunerated donation (VNRD) of blood and blood components, and of preparation of blood components as an indispensable therapeutic means to help patients.

Using rigorous, internationally accepted methods, we develop systematic reviews and guidelines to improve outcomes for transfusion patients worldwide.

ICTMG guidelines and the recommendations within these guidelines provide health-care professionals with a framework for making decisions about patient care based on the best available evidence.  Our guidelines are intended for health-care professionals involved in transfusion of patients, clinicians, medical directors of transfusion labs, and medical technologists who provide blood products in hospitals. We also develop educational resources to promote understanding and uptake of our guidelines.

The ICTMG is a volunteer-based collaborative. The ICTMG partners with organizations with similar mandates.  Our partnership with ISBT allows us to expand the reach of our work.
