Very proud of our students who participated in the study tour to #Chongqing city and then launched the global health declaration drawing on their experiences and understanding of the future challenges.

China has dispatched over 26,000 healthcare professionals to serve across African nations since 1963, providing essential medical care to vast populations, Ren Minghui, a professor at Peking University, said at the #PujiangInnovationForum. The South-South health collaboration has evolved beyond direct clinical treatment to encompass institutional capacity building, disease control, personnel training, and public health infrastructure development over decades, he added. @RMinghui @PKU1898
A inspiring discussion on Building a More Multipolar, Efficient and Sustainable Global Health Governance Mechanism at the Boao Forum for Asia Global Health Forum in Haikou City, Hainan Province, China 🇨🇳. The trust, resources and equity, sustainability were the key.
Honoured to co-author the paper. The global health system should be reviewed and be reformed to better serve the changing needs of the people in the dynamic world.
The global health system was designed for a different world.
A new @NatureMedicine commentary sets out what could replace it: countries as the primary agents, a leaner global architecture, solidarity rather than aid.
