ChangeXUnzipped - 2022 Global Health Conference

Change X Unzipped is a Victorian university collaboration between Monash University, the University of Melbourne and Deakin University. Every year, students from these universities come together to host an annual two-day global health conference. As a dominating and influential factor disseminated throughout societies across the world, we aim to characterise the many facets of poverty for our delegates through the 2022 CxU conference, focused on its interplay with health: ‘Poverty and Health’. Delegates will be given the opportunity to explore these themes across the two days through engaging presentations, workshops and panel discussions.

• Day 1's theme is "poverty over the sea". Based in Melbourne, we will be exploring health issues that arise with poverty on a global level, and how key organisations deal with challenges that occur in developing countries.
• Day 2's theme is "scarcity in the sunburnt country". Based in Geelong, this day is focused on the invisible barriers in Australia, and how certain communities groups are more likely to face difficulty accessing good healthcare.

Day 1 will conclude with a social night held at La Di Da on Little Bourke St (just a 15 minute tram ride from the University of Melbourne), complete with free drink cards, trivia, prizes and plenty of opportunity to meet and chat with your fellow delegates. Some would say that it’s the best part of the conference - but don’t tell the academics team...
