The Oxford Global Health and Care Systems Society are hosting a discussion-based workshop with the aim of gathering participants’ unique lived experiences on how COVID-19 has impacted on the future of global health.
Participants will engage with this overarching question in break-out rooms for a collaborative and iterative discussion process featuring four sub-topics that include:
- international biomedical collaboration in clinical research;
- health systems recovery and strengthening;
- health data and disease surveillance;
- and COVID-19 as a human crisis, where we will explore the politicization and racialization of the pandemic (among other sociocultural aspects of the coronavirus).
There will then be an opportunity to return as a larger group to share and further build upon a plethora of valuable opinions and perspectives that will surely have emerged from the more intimate discussion sessions, and to reach some sort of a co-created, forward-thinking conclusion – or to forego a conclusion altogether, and co-create further questions instead.

Maddie Bennett from Bartholomew School in Eynsham spent last week with the communications team at college and found some friendly faces too!
Last week, the college welcomed guests for a special afternoon marking the launch of the Pirie Society.
The event celebrated the college’s new legacy society and recognised those who are considering, or have chosen, to leave a gift in their will to the college.
Their generosity will help shape the future of the college for generations to come.
