Third Steering Committee: Public Health and Emergency Workforce Roadmap [1]
[]
Date: 2023-07-06
The 2021 Declaration of the G-20 Health Ministers, under the Italian G-20 presidency, recognized clearly the "importance of investing in and protecting an adequate and well-trained health workforce and community-based health services, addressing a global shortage, increasing productive capacities to meet needs in the face of health risks and emergencies as well as insufficient human resource capacity at national and local levels." Health ministers committed to prioritizing investment in public health systems and services to advance health-related Sustainable Development Goals.
Continuing the leadership and commitment demonstrated through the G-20 Declaration, Italy's Instituto Superiore di Sanità (ISS) will host the third Public Health and Emergency Workforce Roadmap Steering Committee meeting from 6-7 July in Rome. The Roadmap members and steering committee are a partnership of associations, institutions and schools of public health represented through their national, regional and international bodies.
During the two-day session, the steering committee will discuss progress across the three roadmap action areas and workstreams; review and endorse technical tools; and initiate development of a simplified technical package for contextualization and benchmarking at country level. Over 75 attendees are expected to participate in this hybrid meeting.
