We also benefit from the guidance of expert clinicians, researchers, nurses, allied health professionals, and administrators at BC Children’s Hospital and BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre. All share our goal of advancing the health of children from birth to adolescence. 

The Institute partners with global organizations where we feel sustained effort can have a significant impact on the health of children and women. 

Our projects engage a range of internal staff at BC Children’s, the Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children and BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre, as well as external partners and collaborators. These can include universities, hospitals, non-governmental organizations, global health networks, global health funders, businesses and multilateral institutions like the World Health Organization.

Our connections and commitments

We are stronger when we work together to achieve common goals. The Institute for Global Health is a member of the Coalition of Centres in Global Child Health and has joined the Every Woman Every Child movement to help end all preventable deaths of women, children and adolescents within a generation while ensuring their health and well-being.

The centre has also affirmed our commitment to global efforts to improve maternal and child health by signing the World Preeclampsia Day Proclamation, the World Sepsis Day Declaration, and the Kampala Declaration to improve care for sepsis.
