Join Students for Partners In Health Canada!

What We Do 

Students for Partners In Health (SPIHC) is a student-led movement for global health equity. Student chapters organize towards several goals over a school year, typically under the fundraising, awareness, and education umbrellas. SPIHC is supported by the Partners In Health Canada (PIHC) office and the larger Partners in Health (PIH) network. Every summer, chapter representatives are invited to the annual SPIHC Conference, an intensive weekend dedicated to the work of Partners In Health and student mobilization, goal setting, and leadership.

Support An Active Chapter 

Last year, SPIHC fundraising activities supported the Maternal Center of Excellence (MCOE) in Sierra Leone. In Sierra Leone, one in 20 mothers are at risk of dying prematurely from a maternal cause over their lifetime—one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world. The MCOE provides high-quality care to women and families who need it most, builds local health capacity for sustained impact, and creates a blueprint for scaling proven interventions in women’s health around the world.
