VAW Global Health Alliances empowers local communities to promote long-term, sustainable development.
We partner with local physicians, dentists, veterinarians, and other healthcare staff and professionals to provide ongoing care in our partner communities. By collaborating with local leaders to implement community-based projects that improve access to essential resources such as clean water, nutritional security, education, health care, dentistry, and veterinary care. VAW Global interns work alongside local professionals to support existing healthcare systems and promote capacity building with our partners.
