Nepal Health Research Council invites the submission of abstracts as an oral or poster presentation for the 11th National Summit of Health and Population Scientists in Nepal, scheduled from 10-12 April 2025.
The Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC) invites abstract submissions for the 11th National Summit of Health and Population Scientists in Nepal, scheduled from 10-12 April 2025. The summit will be held under the theme “Health, Climate, and Population Dynamics: Building Resilient Health Systems for a Sustainable and Equitable Future.” NHRC, as the leading authority for health research in Nepal, has been organizing these annual summits since 2015 to foster dialogue among researchers, policymakers, and development partners in the healthcare and population sectors. The goal is to promote research and evidence-based decision-making and strengthen collaboration within the healthcare communities.
The National Health Policy 2019 of the Government of Nepal underscores the importance of health research for both public health improvement and economic development. However, there remains a significant gap between research findings and their application in policymaking, often leading to missed opportunities for informed decision-making. A national summit is vital for bridging this gap, offering a platform to discuss ways to translate research into actionable policies and practices. By improving communication channels between researchers and policymakers, the summit aims to enhance the utilization of research in addressing pressing health challenges. Considering global concerns such as climate change, emerging challenges in population dynamics and health, unresolved inequity, generating relevant, high-quality evidence has become more critical than ever before. This summit presents an exceptional opportunity to tackle these challenges in a collaborative environment.
The 11th summit will serve as a pivotal platform for advancing research, fostering innovation, and shaping resilient health systems that can respond effectively to the dynamic intersection of climate, population and health threats. The summit’s commitment to sustainability and equity reflects a forward-thinking approach to health system strengthening in the face of global challenges, setting a strong foundation for a healthier and more sustainable future for all.

- To advance research and foster innovation in building resilient health systems that effectively respond to the evolving challenges at the intersection of climate, population, and health threats.
