Oxford Global Health Summit. "Collaboration across Boundaries"

✨ Join us for the inaugural Oxford Global Health Summit

An internal event bringing together colleagues from across the University’s four divisions to connect, reflect, celebrate and help shape Oxford’s collective engagement in global health.

The Summit is a space to listen, share, and spark new conversations about how Oxford can contribute to addressing the major health challenges of our time. Together, we’ll explore bold question

  • What should Oxford be doing in global health — today and tomorrow?
  • How can we respond more effectively to the real health needs of people around the world?
  • How can we collaborate more meaningfully across disciplines and with partners in the Global South?

We want to hear from you — your ideas for what Oxford Global Health should be doing.
