Who We Are? The BETTER TOGETHER podcast team is a group of globally-minded medical students, residents, and faculty joined together by our mission of health equity for everyone. We started this podcast to share stories and pearls of wisdom from colleagues working in global health, to learn how we can have a positive lasting impact on health in our communities, locally and globally. The audience for this forum is global health students, trainees, and faculty who want to learn about best practices in global partnerships, research, education, capacity strengthening and service. BETTER TOGETHER promotes the University of Illinois College of Medicine’s (UICOM) Center for Global Health’s (CGH’s) aim to “bring the expertise of Illinois to the world, and a world of expertise to Illinois.” BETTER TOGETHER also support’s CGH’s mission to “To improve health and reduce health disparities of populations and individuals around the world by collaboratively conducting trans-disciplinary research, training the next generations of global health workers and leaders, and building the capacities of local partners, while espousing anti-colonialism, anti-racism, and equity.”
