HEALTH EQUITY ACCELERATOR LEADERSHIP (H.E.A.L) SOCIETY
Global youth-led platform advancing health equity through leadership, research, advocacy, innovation and community action


Shaping Future Leaders in Health Equity and Innovation
The Health Equity Accelerator Leadership (HEAL) Society is a global, youth-led platform advancing health equity through leadership development, research, advocacy, and community action.
Born from the Slum and Rural Health Initiative (SRHIN), HEAL exists to prepare young people, especially students and early-career professionals to design solutions, lead programs, influence policy, and deliver measurable health impact across communities.
We are not just building awareness.We are building leaders, systems, and scalable impact.
- University-based societies connected to a global structure
- A leadership pipeline from campus to global platforms
- Real-world projects, not simulation
HEAL is where purpose meets structure and leadership meets action
