Vision
To increase the overall awareness of global health issues and to develop University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine student leadership in this field.
Mission
To provide the forum through which students will gain exposure to the global health field and to promote an exchange of ideas and skills to become global health leaders. We aim to promote a participatory community-oriented and responsible approach to global health issues.
History
As members of the UIC American Medical Student Association Global Health Committee, we saw the need and interest in creating opportunities for students to learn about global health issues. After learning about AMSA’s Curriculum-in-a-box, we felt that this should be implemented at UIC-COM.
This Blog will be used to post GHLP participant reflections on the seminars and the program as a whole.
