Abstract

This track explores key global health priorities that shape resilience, sustainability, and collaboration across borders. It will examine health security and pandemic preparedness, highlighting lessons learned from recent global outbreaks and the systems, capabilities, and surveillance approaches required to detect, prevent, and respond to emerging threats. Sessions will also delve into the One Health framework, focusing on the complex interactions between human health, animals, and urban environments—an increasingly critical nexus as cities grow denser and ecological pressures intensify. The track will further spotlight the importance of global partnerships, showcasing how international cooperation, knowledge exchange, and multisectoral alliances can drive equitable progress and strengthen collective health outcomes. Together, this track offers a forward looking view of global health challenges, and the collaborative strategies needed to address them.
