About International Health Travel

“Health problems, issues, and concerns transcend national boundaries, may be influenced by circumstances or experiences in other countries, and are best addressed by cooperative actions and solutions.” - The Institute of Medicine

Global health is important.COVID-19 has highlighted this over the past two years. It is not just health problems that cross borders or are common to countries around the world; solutions to these problems can also cross borders and be shared, regardless of the level of development. All countries can both learn from other countries and also share their own experiences and information. An enlightened new definition of global health paints the picture of a two-way street: Shared problems, shared solutions.
