About this workshop

Join us for a compelling exploration of the journey toward achieving paediatric health equity, grounded in real-world insights from leading children's hospitals in the USA during a Harkness Fellowship year.

This interactive workshop will explore the innovative strategies used to address disparities in child health outcomes, from hospital-led community partnerships to equity-focused leadership and data-driven interventions. Delegates will gain practical knowledge, global perspectives, and inspiration to drive change in their own settings. This is an opportunity to learn what works, reflect on your own context, and collaborate toward a fairer future for all children.
