Events Calendar

Our aim was to bring professionals, graduates and students interested in Global Health issues together, in order to illustrate and facilitate discussion on how exciting and relevant research can be, its applications to the 'real world' and how it can interplay with activism.

Links to other Events Calendars on the Internet Many other health related events are not featured because they are not specifically related to international health. If you are interested in attending other courses or conferences then some of the following links may be worth visiting.
 The British Medical Association Conferences and Courses The BMA/BMJ Conference Unit organises conferences of a medical nature on behalf of the Association. Most conferences are open to all BMA members, other health care professionals and, where relevant, to members of the public.
The Development Education Association The DEA organises a wide range of seminars, workshops, conferences and training programmes throughout the year. We offer support, capacity building and networking opportunities to our member organisations and all those with an interest in bringing a global dimension to learning.
Health Care Events Specialists in the organization of health care conferences
Health Economics Association The International Health Economics Association was formed to increase communication among health economists, foster a higher standard of debate in the application of economics to health and health care systems, and assist young researchers at the start of their careers. They host lots of conferences usually with an economic connection.
London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine The School aims to contribute to the improvement of health worldwide through the pursuit of excellence in research, postgraduate teaching and advanced training in national and international public health and tropical medicine, and through informing policy and practice in these areas. They have so many lectures, seminars and other events that we'd need another calendar to fit them in.
London School of Economics LSE's Public Lectures are open to all and are an opportunity to hear some of the most influential figures in the social sciences speak. Dr Peter Piot, Executive Director of UNAIDs, who gave a talk not long ago, is a prime example. Most events are free with entry on a first come, first served basis.
The Royal College of Physicians Most of these events require membership and are often on the more expensive side. It’s still worth checking out though, especially if you’re interested in the more conventional side of medicine.
The Royal Society for the promotion of health The UK's largest and longest-established public health organisation. Completely independent of government and of any special interest. With Members who are academics, health professionals and practitioners who share an interest in promoting health through their daily work, and come together through Society membership to provide cross-cutting, multidisciplinary perspectives on current health questions. If this sounds good to you then follow the link.
Stop TB Partnership A partnership hosted by the World Health Organization. They have a number of events on a well organized calendar
