Overview

Addressing global health challenges requires cross-border collaboration and a skilled health and care workforce, especially amid climate change, armed conflicts, and migration. Revisiting partnerships and governance is vital, informed by the history of global health priorities, leadership, and diplomacy. Competency-based training and community engagement are key. Lessons from COVID-19 highlight the need for strong public health voices, knowledge exchange, and technology transfer. Leveraging innovation across communities can shape policies and strategies, ultimately transforming health systems to protect global health and wellbeing.
