COVID-19 exposed new gaps in global health systems while the existing gaps between communities on a range of health issues continues to remain bare. Our activities seek to address these inequities by bringing together stakeholders to develop public private partnerships across topics like HIV/AIDS, noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), antimicrobial resistance (AMR), mental health, and women’s health. Discussion tracks from the past include: accelerating healthcare efficiency; innovation in healthcare delivery models; sustainable funding and financing mechanisms; regulatory streamlining; and increased access to medicine and medical equipment for the world’s most underserved populations.
