On January 1, the countdown to 2030 officially began with the implementation of the new global development goals. To mark this occasion, GHTC launched
a four-part video series exploring the role of global health innovation in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The series features
interviews with global health thought leaders, advocates, researchers, product developers, and policymakers filmed on the sidelines of the United Nations
General Assembly.
