Theme: Forging Partnerships for a Better Tomorrow
Solving large, complex societal issues not only compels funders to use their resources in new and creative ways, but requires them to build strong, lasting partnerships with a wide range of public and private stakeholders. As we mark the 60th anniversary of the Medicare and Medicaid Act and the start of a new administration, as well as reflect on 20 years of rebuilding since Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the power of partnership stands as a key force for improving health for all.
The 2025 GIH annual conference was an opportunity for funders to collectively explore innovative, multisectoral partnerships at the local, state, and national levels that advance health and equity. Sessions highlighted how funders effectively partner with diverse stakeholders, bring community voice and expertise to partnerships, and identify key learnings from these collaborations.

Two decades ago, an unprecedented number of health funders partnered with community, government, nonprofits, and others to the Katrina and Rita response and recovery efforts, and we plan to incorporate as many of their voices and roles as possible in our programming.
