The Global Health Policy Lab (GHPL) brings together policy insights and AI-enabled tools into one place, enabling anyone shaping health policy to make informed decisions that strengthen health globally.
Our mission is to accelerate the translation of science-informed recommendations into concrete laws, policies, and interventions.
We envision a world where evidence-based health policy development is a universal reality, creating the conditions for healthier lives, everywhere.
Get to know usThe Global Health Policy Lab exists to close a critical gap in the global health ecosystem: the ability to systematically identify, compare, analyse, and apply health policy learnings across countries and use cases.
We do this through a set of interlinked areas of activity:
An open-access AI-enabled platform containing health policy documents from around the globe, searchable and accessible to anyone interested in health policies.
Our flagship Health Policy Trend Report combines global surveys, first-hand policymaker insights, and findings from the Digital Repository to provide a forward-looking, research-based view of emerging health policy challenges and opportunities.
Tailored workshops, training, and consultancy for policymakers, researchers, and advocates, leveraging insights from the Digital Repository, evidence generated through the Health Policy Trend Report, and hands-on experience to help stakeholders apply evidence-informed strategies.
The Global Health Policy Lab (GHPL) is an independent, non-profit initiative dedicated to strengthening the health policymaking ecosystem through evidence, innovation, and data-driven solutions.
Launched in 2024, GHPL started as a joint initiative between the Charité Center for Global Health, the Harvard T.H. Chan School for Public Health, and the Virchow Foundation, and by now comprises a growing number of international partners.
