Description
Alisha Gauhar, Margaret Mutumba-Nakalembe, Colleen Davison, and Michelle Amri recount in 2025 how a health meeting funded guests from poorer nations. The yearly Canadian Conference on Global Health draws experts and students from many fields. Guests from the Global South face steep costs and so attend in low numbers.
To close that gap, the host group builds a grant scheme with outside funds. The authors lay out six steps used to set fair rules and score forms. They also cover how winners are picked and funds are paid out. Other meetings can copy the plan to widen who takes part. Fair access, the authors argue, makes shared learning richer for all who attend.
