Dutch Global Health Alliance

About Dutch Global Health Alliance

The Dutch Global Health Alliance (DGHA) is an advocacy network of leading Netherlands-based organisations working in global health.

The DGHA was founded in 2020 by six Dutch knowledge and civil society organisations, Cordaid, Wemos, KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation, Aidsfonds, Amref and KIT. The DGHA was born out of a need to take a global approach to health in the Netherlands. The COVID-19 pandemic was showing us once more that viruses don’t know borders. And that a global health approach, that centres health systems strengthening, equity and communities, is much needed to improve Dutch policymaking.

The growing alliance brings together knowledge and civil society organisations rooted in various local contexts and with diverse expertise to coordinate and amplify its advocacy efforts. Our joint efforts are geared towards advancing global health policies and commitments in the Netherlands. With a mission to translate its collective knowledge and experience from the ground into impactful advocacy messages, the DGHA strives to effectively inform the Dutch government and policymakers. As an independent network, the DGHA is committed to making a positive impact on global health through effective advocacy and thought leadership.
