The third Global meeting of the Health Inc Consortium was held in Bangalore, Karnataka between 20th and 23rd November 2012. This meeting was hosted by the Institute of Public Health, Bangalore at Hotel Lemon Tree Premier.

In the last meeting, the four sites namely, Ghana, Senegal, Maharashtra (India) and Karnataka (India), had shared their research protocols for data collection. Since then, all of them have started conducting their data collection and this meeting provided the opportunity for them to share their progress with each other. Over the next four days, partners discussed the preliminary findings and the next phase of the project.
