Innovators for Global Health (IGH) improves global health through applied biomedical engineering and partnerships with local stakeholders. Students lead trips to international partners for needs assessments, educational workshops, and device implementation. Since our first trip to Ghana in 2023, we have run needs assessments at hospitals including Greater Accra region to deliver low-cost medical devices.

In March 2027, we will deliver and field-test four devices requested by Ghanaian clinicians: an oxygen flow splitter, an oxygen purity analyzer, adjustable gynecological stirrups, and a culturally tailored maternal mental health app. We will also bring donated medical supplies, launch a STEM mentorship program for local students, and continue advancing earlier projects toward commercialization.

We will send 10 students and 1 faculty advisor to Accra. Every donation, no matter the size, helps make this possible!
