The African Immigrant Health Summit

By: African Immigrant Health Research Collaborative

Event Date: 11/12/26

Centered on the theme “Naming What Guides Us,” the 2026 African Immigrant Health Research Summit will explore the values, aesthetics, ethical principles, and ways of knowing that authentically define African communities and what they can teach us about how research should be conceptualized, conducted, interpreted, and shared. The summit will examine the assumptions that shape research, question what counts as knowledge, and explore how African wisdom can inform more culturally grounded, equitable, and community centered research practices.

Attendees can expect a dynamic day of dialogue, reflection, storytelling, and collective learning alongside community leaders, researchers, students, clinicians, artists, and public sector partners. The convening will provide opportunities to deepen understanding of African culturally rooted values, strengthen connections, and collectively reimagine research systems that are accountable to communities and responsive to the realities of African immigrant lives.
