The Bloomberg American Health Initiative will bring together public health practitioners, policymakers, community organizations, and Bloomberg Fellows in Washington, D.C. from December 2-4, 2024 to explore strategies and forge connections to bring public health to the forefront of policy making.

Speakers at this year's annual summit will include leaders from state and federal public health agencies, political figures, faculty from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, journalists, and representatives from community organizations. Bloomberg Fellows will also have the opportunity to meet and strategize with the Initiative’s growing network of collaborators who are on the cutting-edge of public health in communities across the country. Sessions will cover strategies to work across political divides to evaluate and reform long-standing policies that impact public health and much more.
