2020 Virtual Fall Forum
Each fall, GIH offers programming designed for funders with a strong interest in health policy. These meetings, collectively known as the Fall Forum, are an excellent opportunity for funders with a strong interest in health policy to get up-to-speed on current issues, interact with leading thinkers, and connect with their grantmaking peers.
To protect the health and well-being of the GIH community during the COVID-19 pandemic, Grantmakers In Health convened the Fall Forum virtually this year.
GIH’s virtual Fall Forum in 2020 provided policy-engaged funders with information on current issues, access to leading thinkers, and connections with grantmaking peers. The 2020 Fall Forum was broken into two timely and relevant programming series:
Better Health, Stronger Democracy explored how health funders are promoting civic engagement, protecting voter rights, and engaging in post-census electoral redistricting.
