The CUGH Global Health Educators Community (GHECo = “gecko”) provides professional development and networking opportunities for professors who teach global health courses, design curricula and experiential learning activities for nonclinical undergraduate and graduate programs, and oversee baccalaureate majors and minors, academic master’s degrees, and research-based doctoral degrees.
GHECo began hosting monthly Virtual Teachers’ Lounges (VTLs) and other events in September 2023. All global health educators are welcome to participate in GHECo events and volunteer for leadership roles within the group. To receive invitations to the monthly GHECo meetings and special events, please provide your email address using the form at https://cugh.groups.io/g/gheco. Questions about GHECo may be directed to the founding co-chairs, Kathryn H. Jacobsen (University of Richmond) and Caryl E. Waggett (Allegheny College).
