Health Focus Retreat 2025

We opened October with a two-day retreat. The international cooperation landscape is shifting and health is slipping down the agenda. We agreed to keep global health highly visible in policy debates because it safeguards national wellbeing and security. We’ll advocate with partners and policymakers while broadening our portfolio. Our multi-professional team now spans climate action, gender and diversity, keeping girls in school, nutrition security and migration and support to internally displaced persons. The retreat sharpened our stance, expanded our horizons, and strengthened our team.
