Global Health Corps: 'Redefining Leadership: A Conversation on the Future of Global Health'

Global Health Corps is a leadership development organization devoted to recruiting and training emerging leaders in global health equity. In this lecture three GHC alumni discussed what leadership means in the current global health landscape and the need for new voices and perspectives, including non-traditional backgrounds, in moving the needle on some of the world’s most complex challenges. Panelists shared insights from their experiences as fellows and their work in global health and social justice since then. Moderator Jessica Mack shared more on the organization’s vision for a new global health leadership paradigm, as well as how to get involved.
