The adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development has spurred opportunities for greater cohesion and maximizing effectiveness and efficiency across a spectrum of different sectors and stakeholders, including those involved in achievement of SDG3 and the health-related targets.
At present there is additional momentum towards greater synergy and cohesion as global health organizations engage in developing an SDG3 Action Plan, led by WHO. This partnership effort in moving the global health agenda forward also requires political engagement and financial support across all stakeholders who can contribute to health.
How can this be achieved? How should governments, civil society, the private sector and academia, in addition to multilateral health organizations, advance multilateral approaches and work together to strengthen global health governance so as to ensure healthy lives and well-being for all?
