  • Build lasting international networks
  • Lay the foundation for future partnerships
  • Shape upcoming forum themes based on collective input

Pathways to Collaboration

Joint Research and Publications
International partnerships open the door to powerful collaboration in research. Working together across countries enriches data, strengthens methodologies and leads to deeper insights. Co-authored publications bring greater impact and demonstrate our shared commitment to solving global public health challenges.

Joint Degrees and Shared Learning Opportunities
Collaborative degrees and online programmes bring together diverse perspectives and equip learners with the tools to tackle global health issues. These initiatives provide real-world relevance and build cultural awareness that benefits both students and educators.

Mobility for Students and Staff
International exchanges enhance learning and professional development. Whether through short-term placements or long-term partnerships, mobility fosters new ideas, encourages innovation and creates a more connected public health workforce.

We welcome participation from:

  • Public health schools, programmes and training centres
  • Academic leaders and educators
  • Students and alumni
  • International agencies and associations
  • International organisations
  • Regional public health networks

This is more than a forum. It is a call to action. Together, we can shape a more collaborative and impactful future for public health education worldwide.
