KIGALI, Rwanda, November 26, 2024/APO Group/ --
Informa Markets (<a href="https://www.informamarkets.com/en/home.html">www.InformaMarkets.com</a>), organisers of the inaugural edition of the International Health Ministerial Summit, are pleased to announce that the landmark event will take place in Kigali from 4 to 5 December 2024. The Summit will bring together global leaders in healthcare to address critical health issues and advance medical systems.





Themed &lsquo;<em>Strengthening Health Systems for a Better Tomorrow&rsquo;, </em>the two-day event will see delegates engage with VIPs, government officials, and industry influencers as they delve into the challenges facing the global healthcare system. Aligning closely to key global focus areas, agenda topics range from pharma and manufacturing to access to medicines, R&amp;D, diagnostics, HIV/AIDS, health equity, and women&rsquo;s health. Africa-specific initiatives enhancing healthcare delivery, digital health and innovation, and financing and investment opportunities will also take centre stage.


<em>Engaging, interactive sessions</em>


The Summit includes keynote sessions by expert speakers addressing healthcare challenges and opportunities, and panel discussions offering insightful and interactive platforms for debate and actionable solutions. A networking event will enable delegates to gain further insights from speakers and fellow attendees. &nbsp;


Rwanda&rsquo;s focus on community-based universal healthcare, its established immunisation and prevention programme, and a defined framework for future healthcare improvements make it ideally placed to host the Summit and play a role in building and facilitating partnerships that will accelerate progress, spur investment and advance healthcare initiatives.
