Consortium and network

Our Consortium is made up of a multidisciplinary and transnational team with different scientific backgrounds and expertise. It has leading experts in the fields of migrant health, health system strengthening, digital innovation, maternal health, communicable diseases, non-communicable diseases, mental health and global immunisation. 

The Consortium oversees the development of the project at all times, although at different stages of the project one of the members will be responsible for specific initiatives.
