The Global Development Division (GD) works with partners to expand access to life-saving health products and services in under-resourced communities, supporting countries in strengthening health systems and advancing essential services for women, children, and families. The division includes teams focused on Emergency Response, Exemplars in Global Health, Global Health Agencies and Funds, Immunization, and Polio - stewarding approximately $1.5 billion in annual grant funding across a team of roughly 185 staff.
The Exemplars in Global Health (EGH) team equips decision-makers with the evidence, insights, and practical “know-how” needed to accelerate and scale interventions that improve the health of the world’s most vulnerable populations. Working with a global network of partners, EGH identifies and studies exemplars and best practices across health outcomes, primary health care systems, and service delivery strategies.
Through rigorous research, evidence synthesis, and timely analysis, EGH translates lessons from what works into actionable insights that help policymakers, practitioners, and funders strengthen systems, improve service delivery, and address pressing global health challenges.
