Abstract

[Extract] It was otherwise an unremarkable November bus ride from Antwerp to Montreux; cold, but in the rather warm company of early career researchers who were to soon become the first cohort of Emerging Voices for Global Health (EV4GH; http://www.ev4gh.net). On that ride, 52 early career health system researchers from 30 countries began a journey. Little did they know it would continue for over a decade, gathering in its wake, 208 more early career researchers from 60 countries, overwhelm-ingly from the global south. The EV4GH programme has come a long way, from the first meeting at the 2010 annual colloquium of Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerp, Belgium, and the subsequent road trip from Antwerp to the first Global Symposium on Health Systems Research at Montreux, Switzerland.
