A history of gathering, trust, recognition and community

Trifermed Awards 2022 gathering photograph

From 2005 to 2014, the Trifermed Social Evening created a human space for connection around health, entrepreneurship and society. From 2015, the Trifermed Awards gave that energy a clearer recognition form, making visible people, organisations and initiatives whose work contributed to Social Impact in Health.

EIRA Gathering carries that history forward. It does not erase the past. It gives that legacy a broader annual form for dialogue, recognition, community activation and knowledge continuity.
