April 12 8:00 am – April 14 5:00 pm
The HTAi 2026 Latin America Policy Forum convenes policymakers, health system leaders, researchers, industry, and patient and public voices from across Latin America and beyond for a focused, high-level dialogue on the evolving role of health technology assessment (HTA) in advancing equitable, efficient, and sustainable health systems.
Taking place in San José, Costa Rica, this one-day will explore pressing policy challenges and emerging opportunities in HTA, with particular attention to Artificial Intelligence in HTA. Participants will exchange insights, share best practices, and examine practical strategies to strengthen policy development and implementation.
Designed to encourage open, candid exchange, the forum creates space for thoughtful discussion both during formal sessions and through informal networking. Participation is intentionally limited to support meaningful engagement, enabling deeper dialogue, stronger connections, and productive collaboration across perspectives. Attendance is by application, with expressions of interest invited through a competitive selection process.
