The University of Utah Global Health Initiative successfully combines principles of community activation, shared knowledge, and multi-level engagement to create long term, sustainable change in health, education and economic development in developing countries.
Sustained results in pilot sites have led to requests to expand GHI programs to villages and communities around the world, across Africa, China, and India.
Your help is needed urgently to support the Global Health Initiative on a global scale to benefit the millions of people around the world who lack access to health care, clean water, and the opportunity to improve basic conditions.
