The Global Health Institute serves as a university-wide platform for supporting research, teaching, and service in global health and for developing concrete solutions to the health challenges facing families and communities throughout the world.

Deus Bazira joined the institute as its director in 2023. The institute is a successor to Georgetown's university-wide Global Health Initiative, which was coordinated by a faculty committee drawn from across campuses.
