Description

This paper argues that the biggest priority for global health and development organizations must be to accelerate this integration agenda with a focus on supporting country-led, health financing actions. It then pivots to focus on health financing for integration, framing the discussion in the current macroeconomic, political, and health sector context.

This paper also puts forward suggestions for consideration by the global health community (WHO, governments, civil society, and the private sector) as they plan the 2nd Global Financing Dialogue, and other inputs for the UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs in 2025. It references the 2018 First WHO Global Financing Dialogue’s outputs and recommendations, placing them within a broader health and development financing landscape.
