Rooted Leader
global health Leader · EU Funding specialist · Oral health expert


Health intrigues me.

Nature holds me.


Somewhere between the two, I found my life's work.

bridging evidence, equity, and action to make
health systems worthy of the people they serve.

HealthWe Conversations creates a space to explore these connections through dialogue that leads to understanding and action.
Through HealthWe conversations, I explore the ideas, experiences, and questions that shape healthier communities.

- Dr. Raman Kaur Preet
What drives me?

Everything I do is rooted in three principles

evidence

Rooted in Science.

Change without evidence is noise. Every collaboration I design, every strategy I build, every stage I stand on is rooted in what the science actually says.

equity

Health is collective

Health is not only personal it is collective. It is shaped by our stories, our cultures, our environments, and our sense of belonging. Real health cannot exist without justice.

action

Ideas must move

Ideas that stay in rooms change nothing. I am here to move them forward through strategy, through dialogue, through the people who carry them into the world.

HealthWE Conversations

Some conversations
change everything.

HealthWE Conversations began not as a programme, but as a question I kept asking myself: why do we talk so little about what health really means? Not systems. Not services.
But belonging. Story. Culture. Love.

So I created a space. A place to listen deeply, observe honestly, value every voice, and empower each other toward the health and leadership we all deserve.
how i show up in the world

four ways i work

One purpose behind them all

I advice

I design and lead EU-funded global health collaborations that turn complex, urgent challenges into lasting infrastructure.
As Co-Coordinator of ZikaPLAN a 25-institution EU consortium across Latin America and Europe, I helped generate critical knowledge during an active epidemic and co-created REDe, a permanent research preparedness network, with Oxford University. This is not just administration. It is leadership that converts urgent response into enduring change.

I moderate

I step onto the world's most significant stages to hold conversations that matter.
In 2024, I moderated the high-level segment of the first-ever WHO Global Oral Health Meeting, a historic moment in global health. I create clarity where others see complexity, and I move ideas from dialogue to decision. The rooms I guide leave differently than when they entered.

I SPEAK THROUGH STORYTELLING

Data alone has never once changed a heart. I shape compelling narratives that connect evidence, equity, and lived human experience. Because the world needs both the science and the soul of what it means.

As a speaker, I translate the complexity of global health strategy, EU funding landscapes, and evidence-based change into narratives that move people.
Intellectually. Emotionally. Into action.

I mentor

Through HealthWE Conversations and one-to-one mentoring, I hold space for women who are becoming. Offering them an honest dialogue, courageous guidance, a space where ambition meets its full potential, and the courage to lead fully.

My transformational story did not begin in a boardroom.
It began with a journey, a new country, a nature that taught me more about resilience than any classroom ever could.

A leader to watch

"She leads with intelligence and humility, with ambition and compassion."

— Written in nomination by her sister

Dr. Raman Kaur Preet is a leader whose influence is growing and whose relevance is only increasing. She bridges divides, challenges systems, and remains grounded in universal values, equity, shared responsibility, and inclusion.
Her capacity to connect ideas, sectors, and institutions across infectious diseases, climate and health, oral health, and health systems is itself a form of innovation.

Your vision. Her expertise.

Real impact.


Whether you are navigating global health funding, looking for a voice that moves conference rooms, or a woman ready to step into the leader you already are, there is a place for you here.

Beyond the strategy and the high-stakes goals, I value the people behind the purpose. 
Whether you have a fully-formed vision for a global project, need a speaker to your event,
or just a seed of an idea for your own leadership journey. 

As an academic and teacher, I bring the depth of a researcher and the warmth of a storyteller. I teach because I believe knowledge that stays in journals changes nothing.

Knowledge that reaches people, that is what moves the world.

Reach out below, I personally read every message and look forward to connecting.

Strategic partnership

You lead an organisation in global health and need a strategic partner who understands both the science and the human stakes.

I don't just deliver projects.
I build what comes after them.

You are a woman in leadership that wants honest, courageous conversations tailored to where you are and where you are going.

The world does not need more women who have learned to shrink. It needs more women who have learned to trust their own roots
