Why?

The world is facing a surge in international health threats, disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations. Climate change and economic crises are increasing cross-border health risks, driving up healthcare costs while budgets struggle to keep pace. Innovative approaches are necessary to address these challenges. In response, the Dutch government launched the Global Health Strategy 2023-2030, identifying key areas for improving public health worldwide. The strategy highlights the importance of including the private sector in healthcare financing and delivery through PPPs. These partnerships embrace innovation and promote investment in inclusive business models, creating a sustainable impact beyond traditional philanthropy. Regulatory bodies foster an enabling environment for non-state actors to thrive, centering community trust. Meanwhile, the private sector accelerates innovation, efficiency, and investment leading to better long-term health outcomes. Together, these efforts can tackle global health challenges with scalable, inclusive solutions.
