Explore the ways the Global Health Program is improving health equity worldwide and fostering the next generation of global health leaders.
Education and training
GHP applies a multidisciplinary approach to global health education. Drawing from expertise within and outside of DGSOM, GHP programs include training in social and structural determinants of health, research ethics, and public health and policy while also exposing students and trainees to the tools required to advocate for health equity. Participants become leaders who go on to innovate and transform health in the most underserved communities, both locally and globally.
