This is the first time in 29 years that public health professionals, researchers and graduate students from across Western and Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas will not meet in Ticino for the Lugano Summer School. Different from that, this year’s summer school will be held virtually due to coronavirus pandemic situation.

With the support of Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), Directors of Main Family Medicine Center, Directors of Directorate from Health and AQH colleagues are virtually following the dynamic sessions on Public Health Policy, Management and Economics from 24th of August through 29th of August 2020.

The Lugano Summer School is a training initiative which aims to reduce the gap between public health theory and practice.
