The Student Board is one of EUGLOH's key bodies, which fully consists of students. Each work package benefits from the presence of their dedicated students, who are active participants at each meeting and represent the view and opinion of students in general. The EUGLOH Student Board holds regular meetings to assess and discuss ongoing topics in each EUGLOH Work Package.

Addressing Global Health challenges, such as the current pandemic, requires coordinated efforts based on robust collaboration and grounded common purposes. Following this premise, the European University Alliance for Global Health (EUGLOH) has already set a prosperous precedent in establishing a network focused on education and training in Global Health at European level. The Alliance has also provided fertile ground for the formulation of further joint endeavours in the broad spectrum of Global Health topics and issues, ground from which EUGLOHRIA has emerged.
Financed by the European Commission for the next three years under the "Science with and for Society" call within the Horizon 2020 Program, EUGLOHRIA will consolidate the Alliance's efforts and achievements towards establishing a European University around Global Health by broadening its scope to include the "Research and Innovation" dimension. Building upon EUGLOH's accomplishments in education and training on Global Health, EUGLOHRIA will broadly expand EUGLOH's reach, incorporating cutting-edge research and situating the Alliance as a strategic partner within highly dynamic innovation ecosystems.
EUGLOHRIA aims to establish a world-class higher education, research, and innovation alliance to address current adequately and future Global Health challenges.
EUGLOHRIA pursues following objectives:
Consolidate synergies within EUGLOH's joint strategy by developing a Research and Innovation agenda.
Enhance the excellence and visibility of the Alliance across the different dimensions of education, research, innovation and societal development.
Pave the way to develop an innovative agenda of institutional transformation aiming to impact future similar cross-sectoral endeavours.
Contribute to securing the influence and significance of the Alliance's long-term plan to set the foundation of a common European health area.
Contribute to tackling Global Health challenges generating adequate conditions for the sustainable development of the "Research and Innovation" dimension.
Provide best practice models of transnational and cross-sectoral institutional cooperation for future European programs and projects.
