To fulfil its role, the District Health System (DHS) must enable and lead learning in the South African (SA) health system. Meetings are a core routine that can be leveraged to encourage learning in the DHS. In this article, we draw from existing experiences in SA to present practical steps that can be implemented to transform meetings into spaces of learning.
