Creating Swastha Bharat begins with a unified approach. NSPHI fosters collaboration among academic institutions, to share knowledge, by strengthening public health education, research, and practice and thereby significantly strengthen the country’s ability to address complex health challenges. By connecting leaders from schools of public health, NSPHI is enabling institutions to build inclusive partnerships to share resources, best practices, and innovative solutions on a collective platform to enhance the activities in its three core areas of work, thereby, harmonize standards, and support evidence-based decision-making. Ultimately, a cohesive network of public health schools can play a transformative role in building a more resilient and equitable health system for India.
