What do we do?
Global Medical Brigades is part of Global Brigades, which includes Dental, Water, Mircofinance, Law (human rights advocacy), Public Health and Architecture Brigades. This multidisciplinary approach offers our communities a holistic model for strategic development.
Syracuse University Global Medical Brigades joint partnership with the New Life Volunteering Society will be going on its first Brigade this summer to Honduras. We will be recruiting members of the SU/SUNY ESF student community and medical staff from local hospitals to assist the health community in Honduras. This includes fundraising for medical supplies and hands on experience in shaping the lives of thousands. More information will be available as the semester continues.
