Seed Global Health

Description

• Seed Global Health, formerly the Global Health Service Corps, strives to strengthen health education and delivery in places facing a dire shortage of health professionals by working with partner countries to meet their long-term health care human resource needs. The Global Health Service Partnership is a public-private collaboration between Seed Global Health, the Peace Corps, and the US Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Established in 2012, the GHSP program is a novel federal initiative addressing vast shortages of health professionals in many parts of the world.GHSP is committed to helping increase clinical care capacity and strengthen health systems in resource-limited settings by cultivating the next generation of local doctors and nurses. The program places US health professionals alongside local medical and nursing faculty counterparts to meet the teaching needs identified at each partner institution.In the launch year of 2012-2013, GHSP placed 30 doctors and nurses at 11 training institutions in each of its three partner countries: Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda. For the 2014-2015 program, 42 GHSP clinical educators are currently working at 13 sites across Malawi, Tanzania, and Uganda.Seed Global Health offers a debt repayment program for international service through private philanthropic support. This model will be a catalyst for service for physicians and nurses whose debt would otherwise be a barrier to working abroad in some of the worlds most challenging teaching settings.
