More than ever, there is a need to guide the future of global health through action. The complexity of today’s global health challenges requires harnessing the skills and energies of many disciplines in developing innovative and effective solutions. As the global health community, it is our duty to determine how best to guide our collective efforts as well as those from the unprecedented rise of new professionals now graduating from global health programs. The message is clear: it is time for greater Innovation and greater focus on Implementation with an eye towards a positive and long-lasting Impact on health outcomes.
