Details

The conference will center on three key themes, each explored on dedicated days:
• Health and Environment: A Time for Solutions
• Migration, Health, and Equity
• Towards the Elimination of Malaria

As the WHA convenes a political audience, the GHF Conference provides a unique platform conveying the perspectives of scientists, medical practitioners and field actors on the main challenges and opportunities for global health.

True to its mission , the GHF Conference will:
• Amplify Voices from the Field: We champion inclusivity by offering visibility to those on the frontlines of healthcare. Actors from LMICs will be given a privileged platform to share their experiences.
• Create a Neutral Forum for Debate: Our commitment to impartiality ensures that the Geneva Health Forum serves as a neutral ground for informed and constructive discourse.
• Foster Multidisciplinary Collaboration: We facilitate dialogue and collaboration among diverse stakeholders, spanning the political, academic, private sector, and civil society spheres.
• Leverage Practical Experience: Our initiatives are grounded in real-world practicality, drawing upon invaluable experience gained from on-the-ground projects.
