A home for
advancing health globally.
Co-create. Cultivate. Connect.
Our work is organized around three strategic priorities that reflect where we believe Michigan can have the greatest impact on health equity worldwide.
Investing in people and interdisciplinary partnerships
We back early- and mid-career faculty with the mentorship, funding, and infrastructure to do their best work.
Building a two-way bridge
CGHE connects Michigan researchers with global partners to build knowledge that moves in both directions — from Detroit to Nairobi, and back again.
Technology that benefits everyone
Advanced technologies are already transforming diagnostics and disease management in high-income settings. We accelerate their reach to communities with the most to gain.
Built for researchers like you
Find a program
Whether you are an established faculty member, a graduate student, or a global partner, CGHE has pathways designed for where you are and where you want to go.
Find your people
CGHE brings together researchers and community partners who share a commitment to health equity, and helps them find the people who turn shared ideas into action.
Better together for a healthier world
From AI-powered cancer diagnostics in Kenya to heat mitigation research in Brazil, CGHE researchers are working on the problems that matter most.
Funding for every stage of the work
Whether you are testing a first idea or scaling one that works, CGHE funds research co-led by U-M faculty and their partners, local and global, in pursuit of health for all.
