Why GHEC?
 
 
GHEC members consider the need for, and functions of, a stronger global health workforce... and an education network's role in building it.​

Get Involved in Global Health

 

The fact is, no matter where we live, our well-being depends on how health issues are managed around the world...

 

The reasons for giving more attention to global health education go well beyond the needs of the developing (and usually poor) countries...
 
What is the difference?​
