The 7th Global Symposium on Health Systems Research

LHSS is proud to attend and share project learning at this year's Global Symposium on Health Systems Research (HSR) in Bogota, Colombia. HSR is organized every two years by Health Systems Global to bring together the full range of players involved in health systems and policy research and practice. Beginning with the First Global Symposium in Montreux in 2010, the Symposia have played a crucial, catalytic role in convening a global community dedicated to strengthening health systems and building the field of health systems research.
