WELCOME TO THE SOCIAL INNOVATION IN HEALTH INITIATIVE (SIHI)

The Social Innovation in Health Initiative (SIHI) is a vibrant global network dedicated to accelerating universal health coverage through social innovation, community engagement, and social justice in low- and middle-income countries. Since its inception in 2014, the SIHI Network has continuously expanded, bringing together a diverse group of passionate individuals, organizations, and institutions who share a common goal.

Our vision is to catalyse research in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to foster and advance community-engaged social innovations that have the power to transform healthcare delivery systems and accelerate universal health coverage.

2024 marks our 10-year milestone, and we invite you to join us in our mission to transform healthcare through social innovation.
