Ambassador Program

learning powered by mentors

After successfully completing our summer workshop and receiving a certificate of completion, participants are given the opportunity to volunteer as ambassadors who work towards spreading awareness about our collaboration among their colleagues at their home institutions and sharing their valuable experiences on a regular basis.

Ambassadors are an integral part of the Global Health Research Collaborative, helping to expand our collaborative reach, diversify our network, and foster relationships with international partners.

Who Are Our Ambassadors?

Our ambassadors are ambitious and passionate researchers who are interested in making global health research tools readily available at their home institutions in order to help build research capacity there. Currently our ambassadors hail from three global regions including Eastern Africa, Southern Asia and Northern America.
