About

The Global Health Hub is a 100% volunteer driven effort to provide an online gateway to news, commentary and resources related to global health and development from around the web. The Hub aggregates content from traditional and non-mainstream sources to help people interested and involved in global health & development to quickly find information.

We also compose original news and commentary pieces to provide a dynamic information portal for the global health & development community.

The Team:

The Global Health Hub is brought to you by a group of volunteer writers and editors with backgrounds in medicine, public health, journalism and computer programming. By syncing their diverse areas of expertise around a common interest in global public health, we hope to provide users with interesting original content and a comprehensive portal to the valuable resources that already exist online.

The Hub’s founding editor, Sarah Arnquist (@sarnquist), has a masters degree in public health from Johns Hopkins University and an undergraduate degree in journalism. She has worked in academic global health research and as a journalist in the US and East Africa. Her work has been published in numerous publications, including the Harvard Business School Press and the New York Times. Contact her at sarnquist[at]gmail.com.

The site’s programming team is led by Michael Lipnick (@mlipnick) and TED Senior Fellow Jon Gosier (@jongos) at Appfrica Labs and SwiftRiver.
