About the Stanford Global Child Health Program
We are committed to improving the health and well-being of children around the world through medical training, multi-disciplinary research, and improved clinical care for the underserved. Our team is equipping the next generation of physician-leaders in global pediatrics.
Global Child Health and Diversity
Under the leadership of Dr. Bonnie Maldonado, Academic Director of Global Child Health and Senior Associate Dean of Faculty Development and Diversity, our team is passionate about the intersection between diversity and global child health. So, too, are our residents! Dr. Ezinne Emeruwa (PGY-II) discusses what that looks like to her.
