The UCSC Division of Social Sciences Global and Community Health (GCH) Wellbeing Awards program enables undergraduate and graduate students to complete a research project that addresses Global and Community Health in collaboration with a community organization. Our goal is to support the sustainability of communities and climates for health both locally and globally, doing so in ways that cultivate a new generation of global and community health leaders. The program is offered through the Institute for Social Transformation, who supports and facilitates the wellbeing awards.

All are welcome to attend the event including students, faculty, staff, family and friends.
