Many of the Health Systems Cluster’s projects are carried out in fragile and shock-affected settings, looking at fragility and its linkage to the resilience of health systems. Additionally, we are also exploring the interlinkages between mobility and migration, in relation to health systems serving displaced populations. Our work has focused on health financing, human resources for health, community-health system connections, gender and equity, and management of chronic illness, including tuberculosis, non-communicable diseases and mental health.
"At Queen Margaret University (QMU), we offer a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses in a range of subject areas, including: business, nursing and the allied health professions, health sciences, education, social sciences, media, marketing and communication, and performing arts."

“I attended an in-person open day at QMU, which comforted me in my decision to study there. The visit allowed me to confirm my impressions of the university, interact with other offer holders, and gain a better understanding of the campus environment. It served as a reassuring confirmation that I had chosen a university that aligns well with my academic and personal goals.”
