WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
We know that a better, fairer world is possible with the right evidence and momentum
Impact Global Health is a not-for-profit research and policy organisation, most well-known for building the gold-standard database of global health R&D funding, G-FINDER. In recent years, we've added comprehensive datasets of products that have been approved for use and are in the pipeline to tackle global health and women’s health conditions which affect millions of lives every year. We use this rich, unique evidence base to analyse risks and returns, reveal critical R&D gaps and opportunities and model future scenarios. We’re a powerful counsel to help the global health community make informed decisions, take actions and have impact.
