Ensuring high-quality humanitarian efforts around the globe is exceptionally complex and requires stakeholder collaboration, systems enhancement and resource allocation. Participants at the GHPF will have deep and ranging experiences with remarkable partnerships, the motivations, execution, vision and results…but can we glean commonalities among their successes? The Partnership Exchange is the place where participants can share their own “hotshot” partnerships (in rapid fire format). You can share partnerships that have transformational qualities, equity strategies, and proven sustainability. Participants will self-select into content-specific working session, focusing on: Disaster, SOTA care, Access to Medicines, Health Worker Training, Corporate Accountability & Sustainability, Mobile Populations, Global Partnerships and Local Partnerships.
