BHF Dialogue 20/20 series' sponsors & partners

By Mary Manamela SECTION HEAD: KEY ACCOUNTS, BHF

The BHF Dialogue 20/20 Series was launched on 29 July 2020. This is a series of virtual roundtable discussions that aims to connect healthcare professionals and enable engagement on issues impacting the healthcare ecosystem.

The various webinars also intended to unpack the crucial question: Given the lessons learnt what are the practical proactive steps in addressing gaps in the system?

DELEGATE PROFILE

Those who attended the series of virtual events ranged from CEOs, CFOs, directors and principal officers, to trustees, actuaries and medical advisors.

The delegate profile included:

Administrators

THE PROGRAMME

Our collaborative and comprehensive programme for each dialogue addressed a wide range of issues and challenges facing the industry in 2020. The main goal was to equip delegates with the know-how to make informed strategic and operational decisions in the coming year.

Each dialogue consisted of a multisectorial panel, which aimed to address current concerns from each sector and offer innovative solutions on how we can balance priorities in a pressured and high-risk environment. The various sessions unpacked hurdles that slow down innovation and solutions that are currently disrupting healthcare delivery, sharing key insights on Africa’s preparedness for future pandemics.

The various themes for the dialogue series were:

SESSION I: Reorganising our healthcare ecosystem – Putting the patient first.

SESSION II: Innovation driving healthcare delivery. SESSION III: Perspectives of leading women on health in

Africa.

SESSION IV: Embracing a digitally enabled ecosystem – joining the dots.

SESSION V: A roadmap towards strengthening Africa’s healthcare systems – Universal Health Coverage ready and resilient.

SESSION VI: Sustaining the ecosystem, with the health citizen at the core.

SESSION VII: Health systems strengthening is everyone’s business.

Thank you to our sponsors and partners. The webinars would not have been possible without your generous support.
