Brief History of the GHLA

The GHLA imparts innovative approaches to leadership, program management, policy analysis, strategic planning, communications, advocacy, and organizational change. Through dynamic discussions and hands-on exercises, participants learn new skills, apply them to real-world examples, and reflect on what they have learned.
