The 20 institutions that make up the first TIPH Global Grant Program cohort represent 18 countries from around the world and their projects focus on a range of public health issues, from antibiotic resistance to mental health to water and sanitation hygiene. In addition to the awarded project, each institution has nominated a student to participate in the new TIPH Global Ambassador program. The Global Ambassadors will represent their institutions and promote public health in their regions and globally.
The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically increased awareness of the underlying issues that affect the public’s health and the need to work together as a global community to combat public health threats. TIPH Global recognizes the importance of global collaboration and local action to protect the health of the public. This program is possible with generous support from Dr. Richard and Mrs. Linda Riegelman.
