Seventy-fifth World Health Assembly Meetings
The theme of this year’s Health Assembly is: Health for peace, peace for health.
The COVID-19 pandemic and other health emergencies with international reach have highlighted the leadership and coordinating role of WHO in responding to such events. Strengthening preparedness for and response to health emergencies are a key theme of the Health Assembly.
