The 2027 conference will take place April 30 to May 1 at the University of California Berkeley School of Public Health. \nMillions of people lost their health insurance this past year. Millions more have coverage they can’t afford to use. And millions more are stuck in a system that makes them work too hard just to get care. Being healthy is fast becoming a luxury. Health information is a confusing jumble of misinformation and mistrust. And the people on the front lines of care\, public health\, and community are resorting to heroics just to get the job done. \nThe system is broken. So what if we challenged its basic underpinnings? What if we stopped shrugging and started building? What if we unlocked our collective wisdom?Since 2024\, Dignified Futures has been assembling a mighty group of futurists\, systems thinkers\, designers\, and anyone else who gives a damn about health\, healthcare\, and social impact. In 2027\, this community will focus its wisdom and talent on Health(+)Care 2050: a future we can actually be excited for. \nThe Call for Presentations is open through November 15\, 2026\, and early bird pricing ends January 29\, 2027. Learn more and register at DignifiedFutures.com. \nWhat Happens There Over two days\, the conference will include: \n\nDay 1: Inspiration in the Core Areas. Keynotes\, talks\, and skill-building workshops that open up the focus areas and give attendees practical tools to carry into Day 2.\nDay 2: Making Sessions. Longer\, focused sessions limited to six people each\, where small teams go deep on a single area and build a concrete vision for health and care in 2050.\nThroughout: Networking\, surprises\, and community building that help everyone meet new people and knit new relationships.\n\nWhy It Matters \n\nTo imagine what health and care could look like in 2050\, and work backward to what we can start building now\nTo put dignity\, compassion\, and equity at the center of how we design wellbeing\, care\, coverage\, and technology\nTo forge cross-disciplinary partnerships across health\, finance\, technology\, and community\, and co-design actionable strategies rooted in lived experience\n\n \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				April 30-May 1\, 2027\nUC Berkeley School of Public Health2121 Berkeley WayBerkeley\, CA 94704\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Early-bird registration ends January 29\, 2027. \n  \nCoDesign Collaborate Members register at a discounted rate!
