Building critical consciousness and collective global action in pursuit of health equity for all.
We are a global community of health professionals, educators, and activists dedicated to the fight for health justice, which transcends borders.
Our mission is to prepare health professionals to recognize the structural and social determinants of health and engage in thoughtful, coordinated activism that addresses the root causes of poor health.
Our community brings health change-makers together to tackle inequity in their institutions and broader society.
Collectively, we are building a global movement of social medicine educators and practitioners.
