About the Pacific northwest Health Equity Network

Uniting theory with action since 2017.

ABOUT US

PHEN is a Community of Practice.

We are a community of practice committed to evolving global health research as a model and driver of collaboration, partnership, and equity in the creation, co-production, and translation of knowledge.
As a community of practice, our purpose is to provide a way for researchers and practitioners to share tips and best practices, ask questions of their colleagues, and provide support for each other. 
This model ultimately helps to solve fragmentation which can often be the case for global health research.
