Consensus Building Forums
Global Health Equity Foundation is proud to present live consensus building forums that bring together healthcare providers, health administrators, experts, community leaders, and advocates.
What is a Consensus Building Forum?
Consensus Building Forums identify critical issues, possible solutions and implementation of those solutions. Consensus Building across fields of expertise and practice is essential to taking the important steps required to achieve long lasting, positive change in healthcare systems.
