From February 20 – February 23, 2025, the Consortium of Universities for Global Health (CUGH) held its annual in person global health conference in Atlanta, GA. The host institutions were Emory University, University of Georgia, and the University of Alabama Birmingham. Its theme was “Innovating and Implementing in Global Health for a Sustainable Future”. The conference agenda was filled with 170+ speakers and more than 40+ panels across various topics, disciplines, and countries that addressed many of the contemporary health challenges that we face today. We had over 13 Satellite Sessions at CUGH 2025 that spanned a wide range of topics. The conference convened individuals across sectors, organizations, and disciplines to share knowledge, build skills, or develop action plans to address specific global health challenges we face today.
