Craving Sweet Success: A Recipe for Developing a Global Health Education Consortium (or Any Consortium, for That Matter).

More than a decade ago, two faculty met at a conference. Each talked about how they were charged with leading global health education efforts at their institutions and longed to have an opportunity to share resources and learn from each other. After reaching out to a few other Midwestern colleagues and finding a date, the first Midwest Consortium of Global Child Health Educators meeting was held in Madison, WI. Now, after a dozen annual meetings, more than 30 articles, chapters, abstracts, and workshops, as well as the creating, piloting, and sharing of several widely used curricula in global health education, the founding consortium members share the practical steps for faculty looking to form similar regional consortia around shared interests. In this article, the authors provide a recipe for the successful formation of an academic consortium based on the lessons learned from their experience.
