Future of Health Summit 2026

Part 1: Rebuilding Public Health's Workforce for the Next Generation

-

Turning vision into practice requires more than new curricula. This panel will explore the policies, partnerships, career pathways, and institutional supports needed to strengthen the public-health workforce—from frontline community roles to data, technology, emergency preparedness, and systems leadership. Panelists will examine how public-health agencies, accreditation bodies, academic innovators, and community partners can prepare a workforce equipped for both today’s demands and tomorrow’s public-health infrastructure.
