Research for better policies
and a healthier world.
We advise governments and public health organizations on
how to design laws, policies and institutions that make the
world a healthier place for everyone.
Research Programs
The rapid rise of antimicrobial resistance over the last few decades is a major threat to global health. We work to integrate the science of global strategy on coordinated global action to improve innovation, collaboration, and attention among global health actors and the public.
Global legal epidemiology is the scientific study of international law as a factor in the cause, distribution and promotion of health around the world. We work to evaluate the effectiveness of international legal mechanisms and generate evidence in support of the development of future treaties.
International, national, and sub-national institutions play a critical role in public health. We bridge disciplinary divides to understand today’s public health institutions and advise governments and organizations around the world on institutional design for tomorrow’s challenges.
Global Health Law
Global health law studies how treaties, regulations, and other rules overseen by international, regional, national, and non-state actors shape our collective response to health challenges across borders. We strive to prepare the law to better address global health challenges by building capacity in global health law research, teaching, and practice.
