The new building will bring together the Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health and some of Oxford Population Health as part of a strategic investment in medical research with the aim of further strengthening the institution’s collective expertise.

Passivhaus is a tried and tested solution that gives a range of proven approaches to deliver net-zero-ready, optimised buildings. The Global Health Building will be constructed, insulated and ventilated to meet the rigorous environmental impact and energy-efficient design requirements to ensure Passivhaus standards are met. Morgan Sindall will deploy a range of intelligent solutions to achieve this, from sourcing sustainable materials to using the latest technologies and techniques.

Through the clustering of Oxford's global health activities, the building will provide a modern, flexible space that will help to foster collaboration, providing a focal point for engagement across disciplinary and divisional boundaries.
