Geneva Health Forum
The Geneva Health Forum (GHF) is the forum that brings together key stakeholders to help find solutions to global health challenges. Created in 2006, the forum is organized every two years by the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG) and the University of Geneva in partnership with 30 global multisectoral organizations, with the overall goal to contribute to improving health and care access in the world.
The Geneva Health Forum gathers from 27 to 29 May 2024 to tackle crucial issues linked to health such as pollution, climate change, how to operationalize concepts such as “One Health” or “Planetary Health”, environmental drivers for pandemics, antibiotic resistance, and many more.
