Today on World Religion Day, we recognize the vital role that faith and spiritual traditions play in shaping communities, fostering connection, and building trust across the world. The Georgetown-Lancet Commission on Faith, Trust, and Health’s work is grounded in the belief that faith communities are essential partners in advancing global health and well-being. Through inclusive dialogue and collaboration, the commission will engage health agencies and faith actors to restore trust and share information for health initiatives.

Legislation recently passed by Congress allows Georgetown to purchase the most advanced equipment and technology for our new 18,500-square-foot Georgetown-MedStar Innovation, Simulation & Discovery Center, a state-of-the-art, transdisciplinary hub for clinical training and education, research, and innovation. It is designed to scale experiential learning, integrate the newest technology, and advance health, discovery, and our exciting future.

Within the center’s walls, experts from across disciplines will work side by side, exchanging expertise and advancing new ideas, while students across the District will gain an unparalleled chance to explore the full spectrum of healthcare and technology up close. Private sector partners will further elevate the brightest ideas and outcomes.

We extend our deep appreciation to Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton for her leadership and steadfast advocacy on behalf of the District of Columbia by requesting funds through Community Project Funding in the Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS) 2026 appropriations bill.

Rep. Holmes Norton’s commitment supports us as we address an acute challenge in the District – reducing the critical nursing shortage. The lab will contribute to building key professional pathway programs to introduce DC high school students to health careers. Job creation is critical in improving health and health outcomes of individuals and communities.

Through this center, future physicians, nurses, other healthcare providers and leaders, researchers and innovators working alongside colleagues from MedStar Health and our industry and community partners, will ensure the next generation is ready to lead and deliver hope and healing.
