The International Conference on Global Health and Lifetime Achievement Awards will convene leading global health experts, technologists, pioneering researchers, and influential policymakers to advance strategies for empowering Indigenous scientists, innovators, and research communities through equitable access to funding, infrastructure, and partnership. This landmark event will also address urgent health challenges in Africa and analyze how artificial intelligence can responsibly shape healthcare systems on the continent.

This theme, “AI and the Future of Global Health in Africa,” will explore AI-driven advancements in disease detection, treatment personalization, and healthcare delivery. It will also focus on developing robust frameworks to mitigate algorithmic bias, safeguard data sovereignty, and ensure the involvement of marginalized voices and underrepresented groups in shaping technological innovation and guiding AI development in healthcare.

Highlights include:

  • In-depth keynote presentations by global thought leaders on decolonizing health research, medical technology, and Artificial Intelligence.
  • Panel discussions on scalable solutions for resource-limited settings.
  • Networking sessions for exchange of contacts between Indigenous innovators, funders, and policymakers.
  • Awards recognizing leaders who have driven progress in hospital, HMOs, Health-related NGOs, medical research, health equity, and inclusive technology.
  • Exhibitions showcasing products, services, and innovations to over 1,200 participants.

Attendees will gain practical knowledge, exchange ideas, participate in solution-driven dialogues, and explore tools to address disparities in healthcare.

Join us to redefine the future of African healthcare where technology serves humanity, and innovation leaves no community behind.
