Need some individual advice on any of your plans but don't know who to get it from?
The final session of the day will give delegates the opportunity to discuss their individual career plans and queries with people who have already established their career in global health.

Groups of 5-6 delegates will be matched with 1-2 'hosts' - experts from all fields of global health - to explore any problem or query you may have, from general advice to specific ideas for contacts. Delegates will be asked in advance what their career interests are in order to ensure they are matched with the most suitable hosts.
