The International Society of Global Health (ISoGH) aims to promote global health as a field of scientific research and health care practice nationally and internationally; to produce, provide, exchange and disseminate information relating to global health research and practice; and to train, build expertise and capacity, increase learning and expand the general pool of professionals skilled in global health research and practice. It aims to achieve these goals through attracting new members, disseminating information through its website and the two scientific journals – Journal of Global Health and Journal of Global Health Reports, its Summer Schools and its annual International Conference.
