It serves as the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Global Health Security and Diplomacy’s (GHSD) flagship global technical assistance mechanism. 

LEAP Global addresses complex human resource and technical challenges faced by national health programs in U.S.-supported countries by hiring and directly embedding senior technical advisors within Ministries of Health, host government entities, U.S. Embassy Health Units, Foreign Assistance Offices (FAO), and regional health offices. This embedded technical expertise empowers partner governments to lead, manage, and scale up critical public health programs while strengthening, alignment between U.S. Government (USG) foreign assistance and national strategic priorities.
