Research in Global Health at The University of Oxford
Our strengths and successes in global health research are exemplified by collaboration across multiple disciplines, equitable partnerships, and the passion and commitment of our researchers to apply their expertise for the benefit of others. Decades of global health research has resulted in established centres of excellence, with strategic research and capacity building at their core, that deliver the most significant research outcomes and facilitate their greatest impact. As a priority for our global health, research we support inclusive, ethical and engaged work that has a high impact on lives in low and middle-income countries, and which demonstrates how Oxford addresses the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals through its research, innovation and impact.
Crossing Disciplines
The University of Oxford's cross-disciplinary approach brings together researchers from all over the university to identify multi-faceted solutions to global health challenges.
Centres of Excellence
We have the breadth of knowledge to partner in major initiatives overseas, in addition to our substantial concentration of global health research in the UK.
Working in Partnership
Building on years of trust, the University of Oxford works with local communities, hospitals, governments and partners to disseminate knowledge widely and effectively.
Oxford researchers work on global health projects from a breadth of perspectives, some of which are highlighted in these examples of people, departments, institutes, partnerships and projects. These span work that both encompasses different aspects of global health and that is addressing global health challenges from multi-disciplinary perspectives:
