The Fogarty Center for Global Health Studies (CGHS), in collaboration with Canada's International Development Research Centre and Elrha, will host a second Global Forum on Humanitarian Health Research (GFH2R). The theme for GFH2R 2025 is Health Research at the Nexus of Humanitarian Crises and Climate Change. GFH2R 2025 will consist of a series of public webinars and an in-person meeting in May 2025. Compared to traditional scientific meetings, GFH2R is unique in that it prioritizes the participation of researchers from settings affected by humanitarian crises, especially low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), encourages networking and mentoring, and creates a venue for open and inclusive discussions. A series of webinars open to the public will take place between August 2024 and March 2025, the first of which will take place on August 28 at 9:00 a.m. ET (USA). Call for applications to attend in-person meeting: May 2025 in Nairobi, Kenya Individuals interested in attending the in-person meeting of GFH2R 2025 in May 2025 will need to apply as a case study presenter or general participant. Case study presenters will receive informal mentoring prior to the Forum and present case studies of their research experiences during the meeting. Case study presenter applications will include a brief proposal. General participants will be selected based on geographic, disciplinary, and experiential diversity, to join the meeting and participate in small group discussions and networking activities.
