About

The International Geneva Global Health Platform convenes and conducts capacity-building courses for stakeholders across the global health community in Geneva and beyond.

Located at the heart of International Geneva, the Platform fosters strategic discussions, exchanges and analysis among major global health actors, providing a unique overview of the global health governance landscape. Over the years, the Platform has gained recognition for its convening power, with more than 20 events organised annually for both national and international audiences.

In addition to convening, the Platform conducts capacity-building through courses on global health governance, power, and politics, including our flagship program on Global Health Diplomacy.
