The Global Forum will be the first gathering of its kind held in a developing country. We anticipate welcoming more than 600 researchers, clinicians, public health program managers and policymakers, most from low- and middle-income countries. Participants from both public and private sector organisations will share research findings, challenges and solutions relevant to the developing world.
