The Global Health and Humanitarian Summit is an annual cross-disciplinary festive conference gathering of humanitarians from all over the world to share and discuss with others what they do as humanitarians. The summit will be hosted on the second weekend of April (4/13 – 4/15) of 2012 at Emory University. This will be the third consecutive year that this event has been hosted at Emory.
