Sepsis remains a major global health challenge, but the opportunities and challenges in preventing, recognizing, and managing sepsis vary considerably across healthcare systems and resource settings.

On September 30, 2026, the Global Sepsis Alliance invites you to a special World Sepsis Congress Satellite Session bringing together leaders from regional sepsis alliances and experts from around the world to share practical experiences and approaches to improving sepsis care.

The session will explore early detection, clinical management, quality improvement, policy, and community-based approaches across different regions and healthcare settings, from resource-constrained health systems in Africa to advances in Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Eastern Mediterranean, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
