Partnerships

The Gates Institute is dedicated to strengthening the capacity of individuals and institutions in developing countries to address the countries' population development and reproductive health needs. The Gates Institute works collaboratively with partner institutions to build scientific and programmatic leadership skills by strengthening postgraduate training, conducting research with community benefits, and promoting evidence-based reproductive health policies. The Gates Institute has ongoing collaborations with universities in Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Jamaica, Malawi, Nigeria and Pakistan. Investing in leadership and leading institutions can help communities and households to produce good health and protect the well-being of their members.

To share lessons learned, the partners meet at least once a year to discuss progress, successes, challenges and solutions in their academic programs and community-oriented initiatives. Partners develop enduring relationships with one another, with Gates Institute–affiliated faculty and students, and with other resource experts.
