We’re excited to announce a new initiative to promote health equity, capacity-strengthening, and unique focused learning between African medical institutions and Stanford. The three-year program will fund 24 mid-career physicians from African countries to travel to Stanford for a six-week period, gaining a specific skill set the African scholars have identified. They will then return to their home countries to conduct a year-long clinical improvement project focused on the skill set they acquired. A unique feature of the program is that Pfizer will then provide a grant to the scholar’s home institution to implement a project that uses their new skills.
At Stanford Global Health, we share knowledge, equip leaders, and build teams to address urgent global health challenges. All our efforts are centered around our core value of achieving health equity for all.
Climate change and environmental degradation threaten human health. Stanford’s interdisciplinary teams seek to understand the impact of our changing world and to find solutions that help people and protect the planet.
