The Integrated Global Health Resilience (TIGHeR) Team
The Integrated Global Health Resilience (TIgHeR) team is based at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. TIgHeR is coordinated through the Center for Global Health at the Colorado School of Public Health.
We are a multi-disciplinary project team united by a shared mission to strengthen and support global health resilience. We are bonded together to serve those that need support for a wide range of clinical and public health expertise globally and at home. Our goal is to connect with governments and health systems to enable national and regional self-reliance on the caring of their communities’ health. We focus on infrastructure, capacity building and education. Our team draws from faculty, staff and students and external consultants.
