Below is a running list of faculty members at Virginia Commonwealth University who have responded to an ACCESS survey, indicating that they have engaged in global health within the last 5 years. Here, global health is defined as any research, clinical, educational or health policy activity that engages or directly impacts populations, stakeholders or systems outside the United States and Canada.

We hope this repository serves as a resource for students, trainees, and faculty who desire to collaborate on global health projects, training, or trips. We also wanted to showcase the breadth of participation in global health across the university.

Since April 2021, we have received 88 responses. 57 faculty members indicated previous global health experience with another 25 faculty members showing an interest for future involvement.
