About US:
Global Health Corps
(GHC) is building a new generation of global health leadership. We believe that
solving the world’s most pressing global health challenges requires better and
more connected leaders who are able to work across traditional boundaries like
geography, sector, and issue area to engineer stronger global health systems.
We need more than clinicians and providers; we need management consultants,
engineers, artists, and architects. We need new leadership voices and new
perspectives, especially those representing the populations most often left out
and unheard.
