Welcome to Global Health Action

Global Health Action is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to improving the health of individuals and communities around the globe through education, training, and practical programs in leadership, management, and health promotion. In our 40 year history, we have had a variety of on-the-ground programs around the world and have trained thousands of health professionals and community leaders from 97 countries.

We currently have programs in Haiti and China, with ongoing interest in Africa and with U.S. domestic programs. Please see the sidebar for more information on GHA and our programming.

If you missed our 40th Anniversary event on April 23, you can still see Dr. Paul Farmer's speech below, filmed and edited by David Hinshaw.

Thank you to everyone who helped make our 40th Anniversary Celebration a huge success!

Please continue to visit our website through the year for other anniversary events!

We would like to thank our generous sponsors:
