The GLISTEN network held its inaugural meeting in Johannesburg in March 2025. It brought members together for the first time - a key step in shaping the network.

Read how a shared vision was formed among researchers committed to advancing equitable #clinicaltrials across the #GlobalSouth:

Well done Max Foundation. We’re on the same path as you. Let’s all work towards a future where this is the norm and not the exception.
