Global Health Major Selected as 2026 Education and Social Justice Research Fellow

(February 12, 2026) — The Center for Social Justice Research, Teaching, and Service has selected Myha Hill (H’28) as a 2026 Education and Social Justice Research Fellow.

Hill, from New York City, is a sophomore in the School of Health majoring in global health with a minor in Justice & Peace Studies. Her academic interests lie at the intersection of health and social justice, and she is particularly interested in how structural inequality and conflict shape population health and access to care. 

The fellowship she received supports Georgetown undergraduates who spend three weeks during the summer conducting interviews on best practices at the intersection of education and social justice. Local hosts are Jesuit-led institutions doing innovative educational work in support of under-resourced communities. 

At Georgetown, Hill serves as an editor for the Georgetown Scientific Research Journal and tutors creative writing for incarcerated students at the Alexandria Detention Center. Outside of school, she is an intern with the American Public Health Association at the Center for Climate, Health, and Equity. In her free time, she enjoys going on long walks, practicing yoga, and spending time with friends and family.
