Botswana–Rutgers Partnership for Health (BRPH)

Established in 2018, the Botswana-Rutgers Partnership for Health (BRPH) is a collaborative research and training initiative between Botswana’s Ministry of Health and Wellness, University of Botswana and the Rutgers Global Health Institute. The partnership aims to help advance Botswana’s national program in cancer care and prevention; create joint research and training programs to improve cancer care and prevention; and create local, subspecialty medical and health professions training programs.

Where We Work

Rutgers Global Health Institute is leading efforts in Botswana, Ecuador, New Jersey, and Ukraine. We also engage in local, national, and international collaborations to improve the health of the most vulnerable populations and develop solutions to critical health problems worldwide.

As a university, Rutgers’ involvement in global health reaches the majority of the world’s countries.

  • Faculty lead and collaborate on projects that advance global health education, research, and service.
  • Students explore global health professions and opportunities through academic coursework and internships as well as other activities at Rutgers, throughout the United States, and worldwide.
  • Partnerships between Rutgers and countries, governments, and organizations around the world combine with New Jersey-based collaborations to create global impact.
