Our expert group aims at exchanging on current global health topics with global health actors, trying to create synergies and links with GHA members and position us as contributors to shaping global health on the German and international agenda.
We offer an overview about important players and current discussions in global health, with key notes from German and international organizations. We provide access to meetings on global health to represent the German health industry, and we contributed to position papers and Global Health documents for international meetings, such as the G7/B7 and B20 processes, jointly with BDI.
In our meetings, we discuss the new role of the World Health Organization in the global health architecture as well as the strategy of the new German government and the sub-committee on global health in Parliament. Also, we focus on cooperation opportunities for GHA members at EU level.
Having managed to position the German Health Alliance as an important voice in high-level meetings on global health, our primary goal for next year is to consolidate our entry points to Ministries and policy makers.
We have placed two GHA members into the steering committee of the Global Health Hub Germany (GHHG).
During the World Health Summit 2022, we plan to exchange with the World Health Organization about private sector engagement in global health and encourage fellow GHA members to participate.
Join the expert Group on global health to help increase visibility on the added value of GHA as dialogue partner.
Together we will have a strong voice to improve global health.
