About The Organisation 

The George Institute for Global Health was
established in Sydney in 1999 as a not-for-profit organization
dedicated to the prevention and management of non-communicable diseases and
injury, through domestic and international programs. The institute is a legally
independent institution affiliated with Peking University in Beijing, and the
University of Sydney Faculty of Medicine in Sydney. The Goerge Institute for
Global Health has offices in Sydney and Beijing and will shortly open an office
in Hyderabad, India.

 

Our mission is
to find solutions to common health problems through excellence and thought
leadership in research, and translating that research into policy, practice and
capacity building. In achieving that mission, we are committed to ensuring the
integration of good business practices throughout all our operations.

 

The
institute has grown rapidly since its inception, and currently employs over
250 staff at
its headquarters in Sydney and approximately 40 staff in its Beijing
office. Research operations are conducted at approximately 400 centres in more
than 30 countries worldwide. While Asia is a major focus, The Goerge Institute
for Global Health is also active throughout Europe, North America, and
Australasia. 

 

The George Institute for Global Health is
made up of several divisions and programs that oversee numerous large-scale
international and regional projects funded by a diverse range of sponsors, both
public and private. The
research portfolio of the institute includes randomized trials of new treatment
and prevention strategies, surveys, and observational studies of the causes and
outcomes of disease and injury. The current global research budget of the
institute is approximately $25-30 million per year. Research revenue comes from
national and international medical research agencies, government, private
sponsors and industry. All of the institute’s research is initiated by academic
staff of the institute or colleagues at partner institutions including the
University of Oxford, the University of Pittsburgh, Peking University and the
University of Melbourne.
