The Center for Global Health and Social Responsibility (CGHSR) takes an interdisciplinary approach to global health and collaborates with health sciences schools and beyond. Social responsibility is at the heart of their approach to facilitating and supporting world-wide health through collaborative partnerships and sustainable programs in more than 37 countries. Their work focuses on health care workforce development and building capacity to ensure the health of these communities long term.
CGHSR is committed to appropriate engagement in global health by learning from and with each other. Executive Director Dr. Shailey Prasad is the lead author of the Brocher Declaration, a guide for policy of short-term global health engagements designed to reduce harm, protect patients, prioritize host communities, and address power imbalances. Along with the CGHSR team, he will offer a global health ethics course as part of the 2022 Summer Public Health Institute. CGHSR also offers Global Health Seed Grants to fund new interdisciplinary research collaborations to advance global health research, which are currently accepting applications.
CGHSR is at the forefront of a transformation of how we interact with our global neighbors, where we do not just “offer help” but create meaningful, respectful, mutually beneficial relationships and engagement.
