Our Work
Strong leadership and organizational management can determine success and sustainability. PHI helps build the capacity of communities, nonprofit organizations, local governments and individuals so they can be more effective at achieving their mission and creating lasting change.
We trust in the wisdom of communities to know what works best for them.
To move the needle on our greatest public health challenges, our leaders and institutions need to be as effective as possible.
With diverse programs spanning the globe, PHI’s capacity building initiatives address a wide range of critical health issues, from aging populations to global health and more.
