Over half of LSE's varied departments and institutes are involved in research relating to global health, covering a dynamic range of disciplines, topics and regions. The Global Health Initiative provides a hub to bring together these diverse activities on one platform and to enable greater collaboration across departments. It also provides a single point of entry for those outside of LSE to view our global health work and engage with our experts.
