GlobeMed's mission is to connect the assets of a student- led network to grassroots health organizations working in communities around the world. By inspiring and training university students to mobilize resources for global health, we seek to build a movement fighting for a more sustainable and secure world

GlobeMed organizes a powerful combination of programs that provide undergraduate students with the knowledge, skills, and passion needed to improve global health.  

Our Health Partnerships enable students to improve global health by mobilizing the resources of their university campuses to support partner grassroots health organizations throughout the world.

As part of globalhealthU, students organize discussions and public events on their campuses to build a critical understanding of global health issues.

Each year, the GlobeMed Global Health Summit brings together GlobeMed members from across the country to learn from leaders in global health.

The GlobeMed Network currently includes 18 chapters at university campuses throughout the country and a small central office in Evanston, IL

Chapters are at the heart of GlobeMed's model of engaging students to make an impact in the health of communities around the world. Each Chapter partners with a grassroots organization in a developing country to collaborate on specific projects, organize educational programs organize a global health curriculum on campus, and lead trips to work with partners in communities abroad.

GlobeMed's Central Staff trains student-leaders, organizes network-wide programs and events, and provides financial and legal services for Chapters. The Central Staff is composed primarily of recent graduates and students.
