We have a strong pro-equity base and our mission is to develop the capacity of health systems in lower-income countries, particularly in the public sector. The Centre has a well-established and popular portfolio of postgraduate and undergraduate courses. Alongside teaching, our research and consultancy programmes with international partners generate new knowledge to improve the health of communities in lower-income countries.

Recent activities are described in news and events. Please contact us if you would like more information about our work.
