AGENDA

Economic and programmatic transitions are changing the global health landscape profoundly. A cohort of countries that have historically relied on development assistance for health (DAH) is transitioning into higher-income status. At the same time, countries that have provided DAH are shifting focus away from traditional development assistance in favor of investments focused on value for money and global public goods. Additionally, one large program focused on disease eradication is nearing its goal and will soon end. In response, processes are under way to transition countries out of traditional bilateral and multilateral health-funding mechanisms, and countries are expected to spend more of their own resources on health systems. These transition processes are often well defined in criteria and approach; however, their implications, particularly when they occur simultaneously, are not well understood. Furthermore, approaches to these transitions often do not recognize the aging of the population and changes in the burden of disease, notably the increase in noncommunicable diseases that introduce new financing demands on the same countries losing sources of DAH for communicable diseases that still demand significant investments. Another factor is the dramatic urbanization occurring most rapidly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with major implications for service design and access. In this changing landscape, the global health community is exploring innovative and coordinated solutions that have the potential to sustainably support

countries and maintain health gains during and after transitions. Planned by an ad hoc expert committee, this public workshop held by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will examine these transitions and innovative solutions in the current global health context.

Presentations and discussion topics will focus on the following:

• Economic and programmatic transitions affecting global health, including the implications of simultaneous transitions
• The impacts of transitions on access to traditional DAH and the burden of disease in LMICs with a focus on several case examples of countries experiencing different stages of transition
• Promising models for innovative partnerships and private-sector engagement to sustainably support countries while maintaining and accelerating health gains, protecting vulnerable populations, and promoting health equity
• Country ownership in decision making and considerations for private-sector engagement and partnerships during and after transitions
• Developing sustainable solutions in the current global health context

The Forum on Public–Private Partnerships for Global Health and Safety (PPP Forum) fosters a collaborative community of multisectoral leaders from business, government, foundations, humanitarian and professional organizations, academia, and civil society to leverage the strengths of multiple sectors and disciplines to yield benefits for global health and safety. The PPP Forum is premised on the understanding that partnerships among these stakeholders can facilitate dialogue and knowledge exchange; use technological and process efficiencies; promote innovation; and synergistically advance humanitarian, international development, and global health interests. The U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine provides a neutral evidence-based platform through which the PPP Forum is convened.

The intended audience for this workshop is the PPP Forum members and the organizations they represent, other public and private entities that have participated in or are considering collaboration across sectors to further global health and safety, and academics and researchers across multiple disciplines who are focused on understanding the value proposition and effect of various models of PPPs to improve global health.
