Participants will hear from expert speakers, engage in Q&A sessions, and connect with colleagues across sectors to share ideas, challenges, and opportunities for collaboration. Whether you're new to cross-sector work or a seasoned professional, this event offers valuable insights and connections to support your work at the nexus of planning and public health.
