The Global Rehabilitation Initiative

We are excited to be a founding member of the Global Rehabilitation Initiative, a collaboration that serves children and families affected by disability, and which enables front-line health care workers in low income countries to upgrade their health care education through an innovative clinical training program. If you would like to be a part of this groundbreaking initiative, please contact us. If you would like to support our work, you can do so through our Canada Helps page.

Higher education

Global Peace Network has been helping children go to school since 2007. As more governments move to make primary education and middle school free for all children, Global Peace Network is concentrating on higher education and health-related education with a sensitivity to the needs of girls, who historically have been overlooked.

Community health and education services

Through our clinics at Magu District Hospital and Kanyama Village, Global Peace Network has worked with partners at the district council and municipal levels to restore the well being of countless children and their families. We have distributed malaria tents and demonstrated inexpensive ways to purify water. In this photo, children return to their new classroom in the village of Ushongo, after extensive reconstruction work. In short, we work with our partners in wherever they are in the world to answer community needs.

Our organization

Global Peace Network is a Canadian not-for-profit organization which began operations starting in Tanzania in 2007.

In 2019, we took on an initiative with our partners at the Villages of Hope, SOS Children's Villages, the Tanzania Home Economics Association and Magu District Council to focus on the physical rehabilitation of children, made vulnerable through physical disability and life circumstances.

As campaigns against malaria, HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis are showing great success, chronic musculoskeletal disorders have emerged as the single greatest health burden on the East African economies. Global Peace Network is happy to be on the forefront of tackling this important challenge. We are also delighted to now share our educational program with partners in Australia and southeast Asia.
