Alliances with academic institutions at a national and international level have allowed the GHBF to promote the exchange of students in public health, giving them the opportunity to participate and collaborate with the development of specific programs adapted to the needs of community members.

“Through the Global Health Beat Foundation, I had the opportunity to volunteer to teach diabetes prevention classes at the Greater Humboldt Park Diabetes Empowerment Center. The work that GHBF is doing has a profound impact on the communities that it reaches. It educates community members about heath concerns and teaches them lifelong health skills. My experience has strengthened my desire to make a difference through public health efforts by delivering education and providing healthcare resources at the community level.”
