Subject: Global Health Corps - Information Sessions

Description:
Are you a senior or recent graduate who is passionate about building a
movement for health equity? Do you believe that health is a human right?

Learn about the Global Health Corps (GHC), a program that aims to mobilize a
global community of emerging leaders to build the movement for health equity.
GHC works to strengthen this movement by recruiting, training, and supporting
the movement’s future leaders, diversifying the pool of young people
working in global health, and amplifying the impact of individuals through
the formation of a strong community of leaders.

GHC provides opportunities for young professionals from diverse backgrounds
to work on the frontlines of the fight for global health equity in yearlong
fellowships. GHC fellows have worked in Rwanda, Uganda, Malawi, Zambia and
the United States. They have a measurable impact on the health of the
communities in which they work, and draw upon that experience and the GHC
alumni network to deepen their impact throughout their careers.

Information Sessions: We are holding three sessions via Zoom. Please register
