Global Health Partnerships Cymru, supported by Hub Cymru Africa, invites you to a stimulating in-person event focused on advancing Wales’ efforts in anti-racism and global health.
We’ll be welcoming expert speakers in global health links, anti-racism and diaspora successes:
Together, we’ll explore the inspiring efforts of our health partner links, local and global contributions of diaspora staff, tackle challenges like bullying and discrimination, and celebrate best practice in supporting local networks and communities.
Be part of this important dialogue as we connect with health boards, stakeholders, and advocacy groups to shape a more inclusive future aligned with the Welsh Government’s Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, collaborate, and make a difference!
