When you give to the Stanford Center for Innovation in Global Health (CIGH), you fuel catalytic global health research, career-defining educational programs, and transformative international partnerships. You support work that builds a healthier, more just, and more secure future for all, regardless of birthplace.
Emerging infections and a changing climate remind us of our interconnection. Giving to global health is an investment in our shared wellbeing and humanity.
Sustaining this work requires commitment—particularly now, as global health stands at a crossroads.
Based at one of the world’s finest medical schools and situated in the innovation capital of Silicon Valley, CIGH pairs rigorous academic medicine with Stanford’s expertise to tackle old problems with new solutions—and the entrepreneurial speed to deploy those solutions effectively.

Our work is grounded in longstanding relationships with 40+ in-country collaborators globally, ensuring we address the challenges communities identify as most critical.

Through world-class education, mentorship, fellowships, and catalytic funding, we cultivate the next generation of global health leaders.

We turn small, early investments into world-changing outcomes through our global health seed grants program.

Women leaders bring new perspectives to global health, fostering collaboration and cross-disciplinary approaches. To improve human health, we empower women leaders.

We partner with those most affected to enhance clinical care and improve the lives of refugees and migrants impacted by conflict and climate change.

Interdisciplinary teams at Stanford seek to understand the health impacts of climate change and find solutions that help people and the planet.
