The 2017 Global Summit is the annual meeting where leaders from Catholic health care with programs and projects in low- and middle-income countries around the world come together to discuss opportunities and challenges involved in this work along with other like-minded individuals from health care, medical surplus recovery, disaster response, short-term mission trips, diocese and the international commercial enterprises of U.S. Catholic health organizations. It will be a chance to see where we are at present — from the perspective of governmental leaders working in the faith-based space, leaders from Catholic Relief Services and other non-governmental organizations — to discuss current programs and future possibilities.
At the 2017 program, Sept. 27-28 in Washington D.C., registrants will participate in presentations and reflective processes that use the ##14 U.S. things## to highlight the myriad of activities U.S.-based Catholic health care has undertaken and unpack their successful aspects as well as lessons learned. Networking is an essential and much requested part of the summit, so ample time is provided for table discussions, as well as during breaks and meals.
