Presentation

During the week of the World Health Assembly, the most prominent international Schools of Public Health (SPHs) will convene to discuss the opportunities for better health learning for the millions of public health professionals around the world.

The meeting is organized by the Swiss School of Public Health, the Harvard Chan School of Public Health, the Vanke School of Public Health from Tsinghua University, and the School of Public Health from the National University of Singapore, in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) Academy and the Geneva Health Forum (University of Geneva).

This year, the meeting will focus on fostering collaborations between the WHO Academy and SPHs worldwide. How can we work better together? What successes and challenges can we share? What level of expertise, training and research can SPHs and universities bring to the WHO Academy in its mission towards lifelong learning for public health?

Deans, vice-deans, former deans, faculty members and students are welcome to attend. A light lunch will be served after the meeting in the same venue.
