The HSPH China Initiative is dedicated to contributing expertise in education, research, and policy to help advance health and social development in China during a time of profound social and economic transformation.  Through education, we will train a new generation of innovative public health leaders.  Through research, we seek to foster new discoveries leading to improved health for the Chinese people and people of all nations.  Through policy dialogue programs, we aim to inform policy debate, disseminate health information, and increase awareness of public health as a public good and fundamental human right.
