The Global Innovation Initiative is a joint effort of the United States and the United Kingdom to strengthen global multilateral collaboration through grants to university consortia focusing on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)-related issues of global significance that foster cutting-edge multinational research and strengthen institutional international partnerships. Each month, IIE highlights the work accomplished by one of the 16 Global Innovation Initiative award recipients. The spotlight is a chance to learn about the ground-breaking work being done as a result of the GII funding and the impact these projects are having in their communities. The first IIE Spotlight is Ohio Stat University with the project "Increasing Global Food Security by Controlling the Dissemination of Antibiotic Resistance".
