This timely meeting, following the recent adoption of the SDGs, will explore the special contribution global health policy-focused think tanks and academic institutions can make in proposing policies that could affect change, and in being critical partners who question approaches and address issues of transparency and accountability. Special focus will be put on health and trade, global health security, and global health governance. In this way, the meeting will contextualise the SDGs and begin translating them into action by framing the debate with a global health focus.
We cordially invite all global health actors to join the opening session of this unique two-day meeting.
The meeting is supported by the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, the Swiss Federal Office for Public Health, and the Charities Aid Foundation.
