What we do

Education

We are extending academic learning into communities, in line with the Lancet Commission on Education. Currently we are developing global collaborative networks for mutual strengthening and leading in the promotion of a culture of critical inquiry and public reasoning about the best ways to deliver effective respiratory care.

Research

We facilitate and conduct research ourselves, and also work with partners on large international research projects. In order to support researchers we have also established an Expert Faculty and an Early Career Researcher Network.
