Globvac Conference 20-21 April 2021
The overarching theme of this digital conference will be the changing landscape of the Global Health in the 21st century. By this conference, we want to present and celebrate results and achievements in global health research in the last decades, while looking into the next decade. What will be the main challenges in the years to come? How can the future research agenda build upon what has been done and achieved, still focusing on the unfinished agenda and the unmet needs of the LMICs, while seeing the opportunities of new technologies and a greater understanding of the necessity of working across sectors, boundaries and research disciplines in the future?
