2026 Summit ~ Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Health Supply Chains for the Next Era: Rethinking Policy, Markets, Capital, and Access

There is emerging consensus that health supply chains must evolve to meet the demands of a rapidly changing global health architecture. The last two years have reemphasized the importance of governance, financing, market incentives, investment models/capital, and access strategies that are needed to build more resilient, equitable, and responsive systems for medicines, diagnostics, vaccines, and other essential health products.

GHSCS 2026 will explore these issues through a combination of keynotes, panel discussions, and contributed talks. Like in the past, the conference will assemble a collection of experts that include government representatives, academics, NGOs, civil society, industry, donor, and multilateral representatives to explore these topics. The committee is particularly interested in capturing the voices from the field to learn and share experiences related to the conference theme and mechanisms to achieve these goals.
