As global leaders convene in Geneva for the 79th World Health Assembly, Foreign Policy will be on the ground at a pivotal moment for global health governance. Across the sector, constrained financing and shifting geopolitical priorities are reshaping how health systems are funded, governed, and strengthened. Governments and partners are grappling with how to build durable pandemic preparedness architectures, unlock sustainable and blended financing, and accelerate innovation.
On the sidelines of WHA79, Foreign Policy will host a series of high-level, solutions-oriented discussions that bring together policymakers, multilateral leaders, innovators, and investors to surface practical partnerships and actionable ideas to protect lives, strengthen health systems, and deliver measurable impact.
