What is The Global Health Network?

The Global Health Network is a vast and connected community of practice, enabling teams to generate research evidence in marginalised communities, health challenges and healthcare settings. Operating both online and in-person, it advances equity in where health research happens, who leads and who benefits from the evidence.

This highly active community comprises over 1.4M healthcare workers and researchers, over 20 country hubs, and more than 60 international research organisations and Networks, including CEPI, EDCTP and WHO, as the collaborating centre for Research Information Sharing, E-learning, and Capacity Development. It connects actors locally and globally to grow capacity, enable collaboration, and provide access to the best available and trusted health research knowledge and methods. The Global Health Network enables healthcare workers at all levels to overcome barriers to generating evidence on priority health challenges in any setting. This drives equity in access to knowledge, methods and opportunities, through sharing technology, processes, and skills, to ensure that high-quality methods and support are accessible to any team, anywhere.
