The Post Graduate Forum (PGF) on Health System and Policy was established as a platform for postgraduate students to share their research, experiences, and insights on critical issues in health systems and policy. It provides an opportunity for students and early-career professionals to engage with experts, explore emerging challenges, and discuss evidence-based solutions for building sustainable and resilient health systems.
The 19th PGF, themed “Policy and Action for Sustainable Health,” will focus on addressing the pressing global challenges in health policy and systems, including post-pandemic recovery, health equity, and the integration of technology and sustainability in healthcare.
