The Global Health Advocacy Incubator (GHAI) uses the power of advocacy to reduce preventable deaths and to improve health at scale by changing policies and strengthening systems.
GHAI supports civil society organizations and advocates in more than 40 countries to pass public health policies that save lives, reduce disease and prevent injuries.
From making roads safer and ensuring kids get vaccinated to saving children from drowning and making foods healthier and available, GHAI and our partners are creating a healthier and more equitable future for all.

Between 2018 and 2025, GHAI assisted the government and local partners to orchestrate a transformative, strategic communications campaign that helped to secure landmark national drowning prevention policies that now protect millions of Vietnamese children. Through innovative media partnerships, evidence-based storytelling and multi-level stakeholder engagement, we transformed awareness into action that changed behaviors, influenced policy and created lasting systems for continued impact.
In an important victory for public health in Nigeria, Kano State more than doubled its budget for Noncommunicable Diseases (NCD) between fiscal years 2024/2025 and 2025/2026. This substantial budgetary expansion demonstrates the power of sustained, data-driven advocacy and strategic partnerships in securing domestic health funding for chronic disease prevention and management.
