Reshaping global health in the aftermath of Covid-19 / Global Health conference by IPPNW and medico international
Three years after the first cases of Covid-19 emerged, we are facing several global crises: an ongoing human-made climate catastrophe and environmental destruction that impact the health and well-being of millions negatively and increase the likelihood of further pandemics. A brutal war of aggression in Europe, that is killing, injuring and traumatising people every day, and leaving thousands more suffering from food insecurity and poverty especially in the Global South.. At the same time, many countries are struggling to recover from the economic effects of the pandemic and a smothering debt burden. And to stay within the planetary boundaries a rapid move to a “degrowth” practices is needed in e the global north.
How can we achieve Health for All in the face of multiple global crises? What kind of “health security” do we need and for whom? What lessons can we as health and social movements draw from the Covid-19 pandemic? How can we live and strengthen solidarity at the intersection of health, peace and justice?
To find answers to these questions, we engaged in different perspectives on Global Health in times of crisis and formulate ideas for joint action towards Health for All.
