Leadership for Global Health
More courses coming soon!
Join our expert global health and leadership faculty in the French Alps for a deeper understanding of global health, a chance to reflect on personal resilience, and hear from overseas partners in LMICs about global health challenges.
The Leadership for Global Health course is primarily aimed at healthcare professionals, but those with an interest in global healthcare, public health or international development are also invited to enquire.
This course is delivered in partnership with Endeavour Medical.
The pandemic has taught us that health is global and the shared challenges of health professionals worldwide has been immense. Health partnerships working collaboratively enhance professional development for NHS health workers as well as overseas colleagues. On this course you will hear from health professionals in the NHS and LMICs with decades of experience in improving global health systems and leadership.
Outdoor workshops and learning take place on the mountainside encouraging a fresh approach to generating ideas in how we tackle the forthcoming challenges of health and sustainability.
