The Harvard Global Health Institute’s Inaugural Global Health Symposium

Harvard Global Health Institute is thrilled to announce that registration is now open for virtual attendance to our Inaugural Global Health Symposium! While in person capacity is limited, we invite our longstanding global and Harvard-based community to join us virtually on April 12th, 2023 from 9:00am to 4:00pm ET for a series of conversations centered around the theme “Global Health Equity through Community Engagement.”

Our inaugural symposium will bring together experts from across the globe and from within Harvard University to highlight innovative, community-driven approaches aimed at achieving global health equity. We will explore these approaches in the context of various disciplines, including emerging infectious diseases, human and reproductive rights, planetary health, anti-racism and decolonization, and HIV equity.

We are thrilled to have over 25 global leaders in these respective fields joining us to engage in these critical discussions. Among this stellar collection of experts, we are excited to share that Dr. Ahmed Ogwell Ouma, Acting Director of Africa CDC and Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, former Chief Scientist of the World Health Organization, will be delivering keynote remarks.

Thank you for your interest in attending virtually on April 12th. A full recording of the symposium will be available on the HGHI website following the event.
