IFDH & WHO – Global Health Professional Network Meeting
In June 2009, an invitation from the WHO to participate in the inaugural meeting of the Global Health Professional Network was accepted by President Marjolijn Hovius to represent the IFDH in this forum. The summary of the meeting and next steps will be discussed as part of the next IFDH House of Delegates meeting in Edinburgh prior to the 18th ISDH to be held in Glasgow, Scotland. This initiative was greatly welcomed by the IFDH and indicates a key move forward in the continuing development of a valuable partnership with the membership of the World Health Organisation.

For those wishing to become a part of the Global Health Professional Network of the WHO, please visit www.hpgn.org to submit your membership application. The IFDH welcomes your contribution and support.
