Mission & Vision
Mission
GlobeMed's mission is to connect the assets of a student-led network to grassroots health organizations working in communities around the world. By inspiring and training university students to mobilize resources for global health, we seek to build a movement fighting for a more sustainable and secure world.
Vision
Our Vision is to build a world where all people have the opportunity to live a healthy life.
While we see an unjust world of broken systems failing to deliver for its citizens, a different world is possible. This world can be realized only if we encourage and harness the potential of emerging sources of change:
- We see students as dynamic leaders: When young people are connected with constructive forms of global health engagement, they can step up to be the leaders of our world both today and into the future. The world demands our generation to deliver critical leadership on issues of global health, and investments in inspiring and developing this leadership are vital.
- We see grassroots leaders in underserved communities fighting to build stronger health systems: Grassroots leaders are working to improve the health of their communities in poor areas around the world. By devoting our resources in support of these local leaders and their communities, important contributions can be made in building vital health infrastructure.
By connecting students to grassroots leaders, we are investing in both immediate change as well as the enduring strength of human capital.
