A network is as strong as its members’ contributions.
As a member, you have many opportunities to get involved. You can learn from other members' different skills and methods not only through direct dialogue – you can also network and collaborate with others in group formats overseen by the Hub-Managementteam. There are currently two different group formats that allow you to work with other stakeholder groups on an equal footing: the Hub Communities, in which members set topics themselves, and the Catalyst Dialogues, which work on global health issues selected by the Hub’s Steering Committee.
Other ways to take advantage of your membership at the Global Health Hub Germany:
- Join our virtual platform, the Collaboration Space, and benefit from the opportunity to get quick feedback on your ideas from various stakeholders and save valuable time.
- Together with other members, establish your own Hub Community your topic of interest.
- Use our annual member event, the Global Health Talk, to network and meet other global health actors.
- Join our webinars on current global health issues.
- Read our newsletter: In addition to our Global Health Hub UPDATE which informs every other week about news from the Hub, events, jobs and other global health news, there is the Global Health Hub INSIDE newsletter exclusively for all members who are active in a Hub Community, with insights into global health policy as well as news from the Hub Communities and the Steering Committee.
- Use the Hub’s platform and channels to share own information with other members.
- Make use of your right of co-determination: elect two representatives of your stakeholder group into the Hub’s Steering Committee and help shape the Hub’s future – or even run for Steering Committee membership yourself.*
