Our annual International Health Lecture is a platform for leaders in global health to discuss topics of international significance, promoting debate, discussion and the exchange of ideas on current research.
These high-profile lectures attract a diverse audience, including the Academy's Fellows, academics, policymakers, the media, stakeholder groups and members of the public. We are delighted to have been hosting this lecture in partnership with The Lancet since 2016.
The 2024 International Health Lecture, 'Climate crisis, cities and health', will be presented by Professor Mark J Nieuwenhuijsen, ISGlobal Barcelona.
