George Institute for Global Health
Founding directors Robyn Norton and Stephen MacMahon established The George Institute for Global Health in 1999 in Sydney, Australia, with a focus on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and injuries that was lacking in many research institutes and countries at that time. “Low and middle-income countries (LMICs) were primarily focused on maternal and child health and infectious diseases; we could see the NCD crisis was looming”, said Norton. “We wanted The George Institute to have its focus on both LMICs and resource-poor individuals and regions within high-income countries (HICs).”
