To close the trust gap and build a more accessible healthcare system for the future, we must make sure under-represented voices are heard.
That’s why we’re pleased to announce the establishment of the A Million Conversations Advisory Group. It’s a network comprising experts, advocates, and inspirational leaders from around the world. While their backgrounds and professions differ significantly, they all share a common goal: challenging inequities to help shape a more inclusive future.
Our ten inaugural members will each serve a two-year term on a voluntary basis, helping to shape the future of A Million Conversations. The group is convened by The Health Policy Partnership, which also provides secretariat support.
To truly earn trust and foster inclusivity, we need action and accountability, not just words. This initiative is a catalyst for change, building on dialogues to create innovative and impactful actions. I’m looking forward to collaborating with other members of the A Million Conversations Advisory Group.
