We’re proud to share our Impact Report, which highlights how CGHP-facilitated health partnerships are improving global health.
The report analysed the feedback and perspectives of CGHP members and partners who participated in health partnerships between April 2024 and March 2025
The findings were overwhelmingly positive, with 100% of the 2024-25 participants reporting they developed new techniques or approaches relevant to their clinical practice. Participants also reported significant growth in understanding of global health issues, expanded their role scopes and enhanced their cultural understanding.
During the reporting period, CGHP supported 12 global health projects spanning nine partner countries including India, Kenya, Malawi, Myanmar, Uganda and the UK. The analysis concluded that CGHP-facilitated health partnerships are delivering long-term, sustainable impact and helping to strengthen healthcare systems globally.
Two key indicators of the sustainable impact of partnerships are retention of knowledge from previous activities and the implementation of recommended improvements to techniques and protocols. The report highlights the success of our ‘train the trainer’ approach and its role in sustainable transfer of knowledge and onward adoption within partner countries.
The report also confirms the impact of partnerships on personal and professional growth of NHS staff – equipping healthcare professionals with the skills, experience, and motivation to strengthen healthcare systems in the East of England.
- 91% reported developing an understanding of areas and systems outside of their usual scope of activity
- 95% reported an increased understanding of global health issues
- 98% reported increased cultural sensitivity and understanding
Evelyn Brealey, Director, Cambridge Global Health Partnerships commented:
“CGHP is committed to building partnerships between healthcare institutions in the Cambridge and East of England NHS and in countries in the Global South. We are delighted to share this report which explores an important dimension of our impact – the perspectives and experiences of CGHP members and partners who are directly involved in the global health partnerships that we support.”
