Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Wellcome Trust: Wellcome is one of the world's largest charitable funders of global health and biomedical research. EGHRIN engages with funders like Wellcome indirectly through coordinated EU advocacy and is a comparable stakeholder in the global health funding ecosystem.
• Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI): CEPI coordinates global R&D for epidemic preparedness vaccines and is a major recipient of EU and Member State funding. CEPI operates in EGHRIN's core domain of pandemic preparedness and EU research policy, though as a product-development funder rather than an academic network.
• League of European Research Universities (LERU): LERU is a broader consortium of Europe's top research universities advocating on EU research policy. EGHRIN is a documented strategic partner of LERU, but LERU operates across all disciplines while EGHRIN is specialized in global health.
• European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP): EDCTP3 is a EU-funded partnership funding clinical trials for poverty-related diseases in sub-Saharan Africa. EGHRIN's board sits on the EDCTP3 Stakeholder Group, and both organizations coordinate EU-level advocacy on global health research funding.

Direct peers

• Consortium of Universities for Global Health (CUGH): CUGH is a consortium of universities and institutions worldwide advancing global health research, education, and advocacy. EGHRIN and CUGH are documented exploration partners and share the same academic-network model focused on global health policy.
• German Alliance for Global Health Research (GLOHRA): GLOHRA is a German government-funded cross-institutional network that coordinates German global health research and advocates with national and EU policymakers. It directly parallels EGHRIN in mission, structure, and EU advocacy, and is already a documented partner.

Emerging players

• European Public Health Association (EUPHA): EUPHA is a Europe-wide umbrella organization for public health associations and institutes. It shares EGHRIN's focus on policy advocacy and European coordination, but centers on public health practice and workforce rather than global health research.
• Global Health 50/50: Global Health 50/50 is an initiative that tracks and advocates for gender equity and diversity in global health organizations. It overlaps with EGHRIN's equity agenda and operates as a similar advocacy-and-research initiative within the same global health ecosystem.

Regional players

• European Health Management Association (EHMA): EHMA is a European membership organization focused on health management and policy, with engagement in EU health research strategy. It shares EGHRIN's Brussels policy footprint but focuses on health systems rather than research institutes.
• European Public Health Alliance (EPHA): EPHA is a Brussels-based NGO coalition advocating for public health policy at EU level. It shares EGHRIN's EU advocacy posture and target institutions but focuses on civil society and policy rather than research-institute coordination.
