Short description (English)

The Geneva Health Forum (GHF) was initiated in 2006 by the University Hospitals of Geneva (HUG) and the University of Geneva (UniGe). Its main objective is to promote innovative practices that improve access to health, with specific attention to resource-limited settings. After 12 years and 7 editions of experience, the Geneva Health Forum (GHF) wants to calibrate its objectives and strategy to adapt to new context and challenges. The objective of the evaluation was to define the role the GHF could play in order to increase its impact by analysing how to improve the functioning of the GHF, what role the GHF can play in global health diplomacy, and how the GHF can strengthen the role of International Geneva in global health. The results of the analysis aim at defining the future directions of the GHF.
