Formed in 2016, the Australian Global Health Alliance cultivates a comprehensive perspective of the regional global health ecosystem and identifies non-traditional partnerships that individual organisations and institutions often can't do. These strategic connections impact over the long term to:- provide a platform for the identification of new partnerships, joint ventures and professional relationships;- enhance the capability and capacity of Australian-based global health and development organisations through creative convergence and collaboration;- establish communities of practice across silos in global health;- profile Australia as the global health and sustainable development hub in our region;- build the capacity of the sector and drive sectoral reform and disruptionsupport the Alliance as a credible and respected voice;Our approach to building more effective organisations and the capacity of the sector is aligned to a longer term vision for more equitable and improved global health outcomes – mirroring the goals of similar organisations such as the Washington Global Health Alliance while at the same time forging our own alliances to combat other areas in global health.
