Our mission is to advance global health equity, beginning in Mozambique, by building capacity for care, education and research. To learn more about the Stony Brook Center for Global Health Equity, watch the video


The Vision

Care is where it all begins. It leads our tripartite mission of care, education and research because it dictates everything we do. Our vision is of a world that recognizes health as a human right, no matter one’s geographic location nor economic resources. We intend to build it.
