Why should I incorporate Global Health opportunities into my education?
Global Health threats remain among the key challenges for our societies. Despite significant progress in narrowing inequities in health outcomes worldwide, the burden of such threats continues to disproportionately affect vulnerable populations. Substantial resources and efforts are fundamental to continue evolving towards a healthier, more equitable world. The Program for Education in Global and Population Health (Global Pop) responds to this call for action and provides the education, training and research skills needed to develop future leaders in global and population health. Global Pop, seeks to support the emergence of a new generation of leaders in global and population health, abroad and at home, through pedagogy, research and field experiences.
