Public health across sectors
Focused on equity
As COVID-19 spreads around the world, we are working to lessen its impact. Our experts are partnering with governments to establish emergency operations centers; advise on testing, treating, and managing the outbreak; and stand up digital and data systems that support real-time disease surveillance.
Our mission of health equity hinges on a strong commitment to anti-racism, diversity, equity, and inclusion –within our teams, and in our work. Read our statements of support for LGBTQ+ and Black and brown communities in public health.
We work on vaccines, drugs, medical devices, diagnostics, digital tools, and innovative approaches to strengthening health systems. Our team includes scientists, epidemiologists, market analysts, engineers, advocates, and experts from dozens of other specialties. Together, we develop, introduce, and scale up solutions to the world’s most pressing public health challenges.
The scope of our work is vast because it must be. Billions of people are still underserved or marginalized by inequitable systems. To close the gaps, we advance progress in dozens of health areas, from epidemic preparedness, HIV/AIDS, and malaria, to maternal and newborn care, sexual and reproductive health, tuberculosis, and more.
From Zambia to Vietnam and Kenya to India, we partner with local, national, and global decision-makers in more than 70 countries to shape evidence-based policies, make better use of data, navigate regulatory hurdles, shape markets for products that improve health, and design cost-effective systems to deliver these innovations to people who need them most.
