Health for all. The Cornerstone of our Societies: a Threatened Promise?

The French Institute for International and Strategic Affairs (IRIS) is one of the main independent European Think Tanks on geopolitical and strategic issues.

IRIS, a public-interest association created in 1991, is a French think tank on geopolitical and strategic issues. It is the only international think tank to have been set up as a totally private initiative in an independent approach. IRIS activities can be divided into four fields: research, organisation of events and meetings, publishing and training.

The Global Health think tank aims to make the public more than mere onlookers of the issues that shape the future of global health. Under the leadership of Nathalie Ernoult and Dr. Anne Senequier the think tank’s ambition is to create an open and lively space for reflection where the powers that influence standards and regulatory frameworks in global health, are examined and analysed by its network of experts.
