Global Health Council
  • The mission of the Global Health Council is to promote better health around the world by assisting all who work for improvement and equity in global health to secure the information and resources they need to work effectively. The Global Health Council internship program hopes to offer students enjoyable, and unique learning experiences in advocating and supporting programs that improve health around the world. We understand that some schools have strict internship requirements for earning credits. The Council's internship program is fairly flexible, therefore, we will be able to work with the students to meet their internship requirements. The primary requirement is that you have a commitment to make a measurable difference with your time and energy in the area of global health. There is always "grunt" work to do in any endeavor, but we want the vast majority of your time to be spent achieving goals agreed to prior to the beginning of your internship.
