The Global Health Initiative brings together key health sector stakeholders from across the LSE, the UK and internationally to share information, data, projects, and practice. We provide a platform for exchange and collaboration both within the LSE and beyond it.
We host a range of regular events, seminars, and lectures ranging from internal events for LSE students and staff to public lectures and high profile invitation-only events. We do so both in order to inform our ongoing research through engagement with others and to raise awareness of LSE's rigorous social science approach to Global Health issues and challenges.
Here, you'll find upcoming and previous seminars hosted by the Global Health Initiative, as well as other Departments from across the LSE.

In Conversation with Kate Kelland
What does a future free from pandemics look like? How can the world learn from its past mistakes? What solutions do epidemic preparedness and response experts offer?
Join Kate Kelland, Chief Scientific Writer at CEPI and Clare Wenham, Associate Professor of Global Health Policy at LSE, for a discussion on how to prevent the major pitfalls in pandemic response. This discussion will delve into the issues by drawing on Kate's newly-published book DISEASE X – The 100 Days Mission to End Pandemics, which features her insights from health security experts, examining epidemics and pandemics of the past and present to describe what governments and institutions can so easily get wrong in their responses to events like the COVID-19 pandemic and other devastating disease outbreaks.

The Future of Global Health Architecture and Blended Health Financing
Invest in the future of global health by attending Michael Borowitz's lecture on blended health financing and the global health architecture.
Join us on Thursday 23rd March 2023 for a Global Health Initiative lecture by Michael Borowitz, Chief Economist at The Global Fund, on the future of the global health architecture and blended health financing.
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the fragility and inadequacy of our global health architecture. As we look to the future, it is clear that we need new models of health financing and governance to achieve greater health equity and resilience. Blended health financing, which combines public and private sector resources, offers a promising approach to filling gaps in health financing and increasing access to essential health services.

Now or Never: crafting the global COVID-19 response
This unprecedented global crisis requires an unprecedented global response. The first contours of such a response are slowly emerging, but there are important missing pieces and the speed and scale are not sufficient. Most of the measures taken so far have come from the international financial institutions, with the G20 Leaders slowly catching up. The G20 Finance Ministers meeting and the IMF Spring meetings took place last week and we know have a G20 Action Plan. Regional leaders have also taken steps to address the crisis in their respective regions. This panel will take stock of where we are and what needs to happen in coming months.
