Announcing the 2022-2023 Fellow Class
GHC is honored to launch our 2022-2023 fellow cohort of 52 young changemakers
advancing health equity in Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda, and Zambia.
In the wake of COVID-19, progress on improving health outcomes — from the full spectrum of sexual and reproductive health to infectious disease control — hangs in the balance. Who leaders are and how they lead will determine our course from here.
Filling Critical Gaps on the Frontlines of Global Health
GHC’s 2022-2023 fellows will join the movement for global health equity. Throughout the fellowship, they’ll sharpen their leadership skills as they work to strengthen health systems in their communities in the wake of the pandemic. They bring expertise in data analysis, architecture, eHealth, supply chain, behavior change communications, policy and advocacy, and more to advance the work of frontline health organizations including Partners in Health, Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, PATH, AMREF, Ministries of Health, and others.
Working Across Health Systems
GHC selected these fellows for their potential to drive health systems change and their desire to grow as leaders and join our thriving, global network of changemakers. Collectively, they have and will make an impact across a wide range of health issues: COVID-19 response, sexual and reproductive health and rights, water and sanitation, NCDs, malaria and HIV/AIDS eradication, gender-based violence, LGBTQIA+ health, and more.
Delivering Impact
Since 2009, Global Health Corps trained, supported, and amplified the impact of over 1,100+ young health equity leaders. Our program has invested in their development early and often throughout their careers. We have:
- accelerated the careers of 720+ women to close the gender gap in global health leadership.
- facilitated 580+ young leaders’ speaking & writing engagements.
- awarded $125K+ in seed funding for young leaders to launch health-related social enterprises.
- supported our leaders to respond to community needs through COVID-19 Coalitions in 8 countries.
