Because we deserve a say in the development of medicines.

Millions of lives are being needlessly lost globally every year

Big Pharma has become slow and bloated. They are focused on winning tens of billions in profits from new drugs with large markets, rarely pursuing drugs that can't cover these large overhead expenses.

This includes the thousands of generic drugs that are already proven safe - there is no sufficiently large financial incentive for large drug companies to repurpose drugs that have outlived their patent protection, no matter how much good they might do.
