Building Robust, Equitable and Coordinated Community Health Systems

True transformation of health systems requires equitable community health systems and strong local leadership.

It’s time for community-driven solutions.

The Communities First Global Collaborative brings new voices and solutions to the table that are community-inspired and community-driven to help create a healthy system that works for all.

Join the movement to start with communities

The collaborative supports community leaders in three ways:

Global Academy for Health Systems Resilience

Building on Partners in Health (PIH)’s extensive experience and leveraging  the University of Global Health Equity in Rwanda (UGHE), collaboratively we have launched the Global Academy for Health Systems Resilience which serves as a center of excellence in upgrading, knowledge, skills and systems for leaders to effectively prevent and/or respond to crises and accelerate health systems recovery.

Leaders in the Collaborative will have the opportunity to share innovative ideas through peer-to-peer dialogues, virtual exchanges, and participation in global convenings. 

Facilitating Innovation

Through the partnership, participants will engage in learning opportunities and virtual convenings. Results from these discussions will include the development of working papers with actionable solutions to develop, replicate and scale community-led solutions.
