Office of Community Engagement

Global health matters to everyone, not just those in developing countries or marginalized communities. By working together, we can find solutions to address health issues that go beyond geographic borders and help decrease health inequities around the world, regardless of race, culture, gender or social class. Global health education, research and clinical outreach are all major priorities of Dalhousieโ€™s Global Health Office (GHO). Our work supports Dalhousie Medical School and the faculties of Health Professions and Dentistry with an inclusive structure that incorporates the broader Dalhousie community. The interprofessional and interdisciplinary approach we take is pivotal to our mission to build leadership within the Dalhousie community to advance global health. And our advisory committees work with us to enhance strategic partnerships in our local communities and across the globe.
