GlobeMed aims to mobilize a community of students and grassroots leaders to work together to improve the health of people around the world. Founded by students in 2006, GlobeMed creates a space for students at 36 university-based chapters throughout the US and in Rwanda to learn about global health through hands-on, real world experiences. Each chapter is partnered with a community-led health organization in Africa, Asia, or the Americas. By building long-term, one-to-one partnerships between students and grassroots organizations, GlobeMed fosters the dialogue, collaboration, and mutual learning we need to tackle today’s complex global health challenges. Through their involvement in GlobeMed, students and partners commit to a life of leadership in global health and social justice.
