GGHH Connect is an innovative multilingual social networking platform where members of the Global Green and Healthy Hospitals initiative (hospitals, health systems, and health organizations from around the world) connect, learn, and collaborate with each other to support their efforts toward reducing the environmental footprint of the health sector.
