About the event
This event will unite global leaders in community health to explore inspiring models of resilience.
Participants will engage with Thailand’s remarkable network of over one million community health workers, the largest such cadre in the world. They’ll also connect with frontline health workers in Myanmar, delivering essential care to communities beyond the reach of formal systems, and Rohingya health workers in Bangladesh, who are building crucial bridges between displaced communities and their new host health services.
Hosted by Community Partners International, the ASEAN Institute for Health and Development and Khon Kaen University. The 4th International CHW Symposium, will build on previous editions in Uganda (2017), Bangladesh (2019) and Liberia (2023). The theme is "On the Front Lines: Empowering Community Health Workers to Create Equitable Health Systems in Contexts of Conflict, Migration and Exclusion."
