MISSION:
The University of Virginia's Center for Global Health promotes health in resource-limited settings by fostering the commitment of students, faculty and partners from many disciplines to address the diseases of poverty.

Our model has three main components:

Scholars: UVa students develop faculty-mentored projects related to health with collaborators in resource-limited settings.

Fellows International fellows from collaborating institutions in developing regions train and conduct research at UVa in order to return, train others, and lead efforts to address local health priorities.

Curricula: CGH promotes faculty development of multidisciplinary global health curricula to prepare and inspire students for involvement in global health.
