Considerable advancements and significant investments in global health have marked recent years; yet numerous evidence-based interventions continue to fall short of their full potential. By leveraging the multidisciplinary and multi-sector strength of its members, the Bay Area Global Health Alliance explored these challenges through the lens of implementation science in our new insights report. The project engaged nearly 150 global health leaders across various disciplines and sectors to inform and enhance the design, implementation, and scalability of health solutions.

Insights to Action: Ideation on Implementation for Equity
Too often, promising health interventions do not reach the world’s most vulnerable or are not effectively adapted to community needs and constraints. This often results in critical needs remaining unmet and growing health inequity, despite significant investment seeking to address these issues. On Thursday, October 26, 2023, the Bay Area Global Health Alliance’s Insights to Action: Ideation on Implementation for Equity event explored practical solutions to close the gap between what we know and what we do, using the lens of implementation science to advance health equity. One week later, a follow-up event on November 3, 2023, created an opportunity for more dialogue and small group breakout discussions.
