Enhanced research and innovation

SEAMO supports research and innovation projects that drive improved health and health systems. This includes expanding SEAMO programs to support collaborative research, building links for SEAMO with research groups that include different disciplines/communities to collectively identify and work on population and system needs locally and globally, ensuring SEAMO structures enable and support research time and resources, and supporting new chairs for research and innovation.
