Known for its longstanding peace and democratic values, Costa Rica is the ideal place to understand health equity as a core value of any future health practitioner.
Although lagging in its social development indices, the region is full of invaluable assets. We believe this to be an ideal location for a safe and transformative global health experience.
Global Health is by definition a multi-disciplinary field, which is why we have aimed to build a diverse team of professionals to offer students a comprehensive and integrated educational experience.
