The 16th annual Global Health Mini-University (Mini-U) will take place on September 14, 2017. Mini-U is a day-long learning forum that offers innovative sessions highlighting evidence-based best practices and state-of-the-art information.

There are 64 technical sessions covering ten different area topics on global health: environmental health, family planning and reproductive health, global health security, health systems, HIV/AIDS, humanitarian relief, infectious disease, maternal, neonatal and child health, non communicable disease and injury and nutrition.

Mini-U provides an opportunity for individuals from varied backgrounds to interact with global health professionals. In past years, attendees included students, medical professionals, public health experts, NGOs, US government staff, non-profits and other parties interested in global health.

Mini-U is hosted by the USAID Bureau for Global Health and the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health.

Social Impact works with USAID Bureau for Global Health to improve the effectiveness of its global health programs through the provision of professional and organizational development support.
