Lessons learned from one global health program can inform responses to challenges faced by others. The Synthesis and Translation of Research and Innovations from Polio Eradication (STRIPE) consortium, comprising 8 institutions across diverse settings, aimed to translate polio eradication lessons into a global health course. This report describes the collaborative process, learnings, barriers encountered (team coordination, inter-country hierarchies, COVID-19 pandemic), and recommendations for future collaborative course development. The diverse team utilized regional in-person meetings to enhance rapport and develop course content reflecting varied contexts. Recommendations include proactively addressing hierarchies and prioritizing in-person meeting time.
