The website is being launched in stages. In the months to come they will host moderated discussion forums, and an extensive links section where it will map the knowledge and expertise of global health actors with an interest in European policy. They will also have an open think tank section where registered participants are invited to publish short opinion articles or research abstracts. The website will be a knowledge repository and facilitates improved collaboration and networking between existing networks.
