A charity supporting public health practice

Peoples-Praxis is a registered charity in England and Wales (charity number 1197471). We work with public health practitioners, mentors, trustees, volunteers, and partner organisations to strengthen applied public health practice — especially for practitioners serving low-to-middle-income countries.

What we do is practical and accessible. We connect early-career researchers and practitioners with experienced mentors for free 1:1 remote mentoring, share free courses and reflective resources, and build partnerships with universities, professional bodies, and networks committed to global public health equity.

For public health practitioners in low-to-middle-income countries, our mentoring is free — our aim is simply to help them turn knowledge into real-world impact.
