Global Health Week
Global Health Week 2024 will mark the 30th anniversary of the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cairo. The ICPD redefined population and development issues by emphasizing that the protection of individual human rights, including gender equity and reproductive health and rights, must be at the heart of population and development programs. During Global Health Week, we will analyze the ICPD’s progress and setbacks, discuss current and future priorities, and explore topics not addressed in Cairo, such as climate change and LGBTQIA+ issues.
Current Harvard students and postdoctoral fellows are invited to submit a poster presentation on global health and population studies. We particularly encourage submissions with topics related to population and development issues; however, we welcome submissions from many different disciplines and schools at Harvard University.
The poster session is designed to provide an opportunity for Harvard graduate students and postdocs to present their latest scientific findings and community engagement activities to the greater School, University, and global health community.
