BACKGROUND WORLD HEALTH SUMMIT BERLIN

“The World Health Summit is one of the world’s leading strategic forums for Global Health and ONE HEALTH. Every October it brings together leaders from politics, science and medicine, the private sector, and civil society to set the agenda for a healthier future. 300 speakers and 2,500 participants from 100 countries take part.

The three pillars of the World Health Summit:

Global challenges: Discuss and debate topics such as chronic disease, the application of modern technologies, vaccination and immunization, the promotion of innovation, and interdisciplinary cooperation in health-care research.

Global responsibilities: Advances in medicine have to reach people faster and more effectively. Sustainable approaches must play a central role in this process.

Global networking: International figures and bodies from the fields of science, politics, business, and civil society come together to promote and strengthen cooperative efforts.
