Our Story

For decades, the Global South has been an epicenter for health challenges. Yet the level of input from Global South-based institutions has been merely inexistent. This alarming fact underscored the necessity to foster “local” global health leaders for contextualizing knowledge and tools in order to face these challenges.

In 2016, AUB’s newly inaugurated president, Dr. Fadlo R. Khuri, announced the founding of the Global Health institute (GHI) as part of the HEALTH 2025 vision. HEALTH 2025 aims to better serve the population and their clinical health needs in Lebanon, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and the Global South.

After months of dedicated groundwork, AUB’s Global Health Institute was formally established on July 19, 2017. With this, GHI became the first such institute in the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA), and among the very few in the Global South. Strategically based in the MENA region, GHI came to be the regional leader and key partner in defining and addressing the global health agenda. Our vision is not only to contextualize global health, but also to have the voice of the region heard within the global health dialogue that is happening all around the globe.

GHI has three major divisions:
