Since 1995, the Kongress Armut und Gesundheit (Poverty and Health Congress) has been Germany’s key platform for addressing health inequalities. Each year, it brings together stakeholders from science, healthcare, politics, practice, and self-help to examine the structural drivers of health disparities, share research, and explore strategies for change.
The 2026 congress will center on a pressing question: What are social equity and health worth to us as a society? Building on last year’s call for poverty-sensitive, evidence-based policymaking, the event will critically examine why political action often fails to reflect scientific evidence, and how this can be changed.
Participants can expect a programme of discussions, presentations, and workshops highlighting new research, policy approaches, and practical solutions. Contributions can be submitted until 15 September 2025.
