CFHI Academic Partner Application 2024
Child Family Health International is dedicated to transformative Global Health Education programs, research, and thought leadership emphasizing community leadership, global citizenship, and ethical engagement.  CFHI partners with universities to help scale global health experiential education offerings and other mechanisms to expand global health curriculum.  CFHI calls university partners "Academic Partners."  CFHI Partners with schools, programs, departments and entire universities, depending on what is a mutual fit.  We work with undergraduate, graduate, professional and post-graduate trainees and faculty. CFHI works with universities from around the world.  We offer both in-person and virtual global health education programs. To see our program portfolio, visit: https://www.cfhi.org/program/

CFHI is currently accepting applications for universities to join our network.  Academic Partnership does not have a financial cost for universities, rather the investment is in time and bandwidth in order for the university faculty/administrators to get to know CFHI and vice versa.  CFHI has an approach to global health experiences that emphasizes locally-led health systems, a balance between academic frameworks and organic community-based learning, asset-based engagement principles, and Fair-Trade Learning (to learn more about Fair-Trade Learning visit our partner, The Community Based Global Learning Collaborative that houses this initiative: https://www.cbglcollab.org/ftl).  

CFHI has a tripartite mission: Programs, Research and Thought Leadership.  It may be useful to learn more about CFHI's research and thought leadership as a compliment to this application process.  To do so, please visit: https://www.cfhi.org/publications/. A helpful summary article on CFHI's approach is here: https://www.cfhi.org/publications/teaching-corner-child-family-health-international/.  This application process helps CFHI evaluate value alignment between university teams and CFHI's ethos. 

This application is non-binding, meaning it does not obligate you to partner with CFHI.  Rather, it opens doors to conversations regarding partnership and collaboration.  

APPLICATION DEADLINE: May 1, 2024

If you have questions or want to discuss more, please contact Dr. Jessica Evert, CFHI Global Medical Director at jevert@cfhi.org.

Are there any particular countries you or your students are interested in as a location of global health experiences? *
Required
On a scale of 1-10 (1 being low, 10 being high) what is the level of institutional support (tangible and intangible) for global health education and global health experiences?  

(We understand that institutional support can vary and fluctuate. We are not looking for partners who only have high level of institutional support, rather it helps us understand what situation you are in and how we might best partner.)
