The World Health Summit (WHS) is an international strategic forum for global health that convenes stakeholders from science, business, politics, and civil society to discuss key challenges in global healthcare.
In addition to the conference in Berlin, the World Health Summit features annual WHS Regional Meetings held in different parts of the world as well as activities throughout the year such as the WHS Global Health Dialogues, which aim to foster exchange among decision-makers and thought leaders in smaller settings.
The World Health Summit’s academic basis is the WHS Academic Alliance, a network of academic health centers, universities and national academies that organizes the WHS Regional Meetings and international initiatives in the global health sector.
