This year the EV4GH2014 track links up with the Third Global Health Symposium on Health Systems Research, Science and Practice of people-centred health systems, in Cape Town, South Africa, from mid September to 3 October 2014. The School of Public Health at the University of Western Cape, South Africa will host the Emerging Voices for the second time. Together with the University of Cape Town, Peking University Health Science Center, Institute of Public Health Bengalaru India and the Institute of Tropical Medicine Antwerp they join forces to make this new venture a success. The Third Global Health Symposium on Health Systems Research has allocated 8 thematic tracks in which the Emerging Voices 2014 are also divided into.
The Emerging Voices training has two components, a distance coaching phase (which runs from June till September) and a face-to-face phase which will take place in Cape Town between September 20-28. On September 29 there will be a Pre-Conference organized at the School of Public Health at the University of Western Cape where the EVs will deliver their presentations and showcase their posters.
