At the School of Public Health, we work to solve public health problems both at home and across the globe. We have ongoing collaborative research taking place in Bangladesh, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Ethiopia, the Gambia, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Iran, Jamaica, Kenya, Mexico, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, and in disadvantaged populations in the United States, including inner-city Baltimore.
The public health problems we are addressing are even more numerous than the countries in which we are doing research. International Health is the spectrum of public health issues, applied globally and especially to disadvantaged communities. We work with local governments and community leaders, ministries of health, community-based health and human service agencies, universities and research institutes with one principal goal: to improve the capacity of the community to deliver the best possible preventive and curative care to their people.
