Representatives from the Partnership for Health System Sustainability and Resilience (PHSSR) are excited to return to the UAE for Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week 2024.
Globally, health systems are struggling with comparable challenges. Overstretched systems are in crisis leaving them vulnerable and ill-equipped to respond to future needs. In 2024 more than ever, maximum efforts should be taken to ensure that health systems are able to continually deliver their services over the long-term, whilst also being able to better prepare for, adapt to, learn, and recover from shocks and accumulated stresses.
The PHSSR 3rd Summit will bring together experts from around the world to first launch new data from the Abu Dhabi PHSSR report, followed by deep-dives on how globally we can build stronger health systems that will withstand these future challenges. These two sessions will focus on the importance of acting early on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and tackling the relationship between climate change and health systems. Please see the full agenda below.
The PHSSR is a non-profit, multi-sector, global collaboration with a unified goal of building more sustainable and resilient health systems. To support this goal, the PHSSR is active in over 30 countries, and has published 26 reports to date on its commissioned independent research, providing evidence-based recommendations on health system strengthening.
Through its work, the PHSSR seeks to build knowledge through robust research, guide action through evidence-informed policy recommendations, and facilitate global, multi-sector collaboration and partnership to collectively facilitate policy implementation to future proof health systems. PHSSR global member organisations include the London School of Economics, the WHO Foundation, the World Economic Forum, AstraZeneca, Philips, the Center for Asia-Pacific Resilience and Innovation and additional organisations at the regional and national levels. PHSSR representatives were last in the UAE in 2022, where they organised the Health System Resilience Summit at the World Expo in Dubai.
