“We both believe that, for Alexander Fleming’s discovery of penicillin to be safeguarded for generations to come, we need a multidisciplinary approach that harnesses science, public engagement, behavioral research, policy and regulation.” In a new World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) report, Lord Darzi and Professor Dame Sally Davies set out their policy recommendations to build on the success of the United Nations Political Declaration of the High-Level Meeting on Antimicrobial Resistance.

At World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) in Doha, I discussed the devastating impact that a year and a half of war has had on Sudan. The needs of the population are massive and remain largely unmet due to the limited access to humanitarian space for NGOs and humanitarian workers. The situation in the country is critical, yet with limited attention. In Khartoum, 80% of health facilities aren't functioning. Provision of, and access to, services such as healthcare is under threat. During 20 years of activity in Sudan, EMERGENCY has built its credibility through the quality of its work. EMERGENCY’s reputation as a reliable and neutral actor has allowed our staff to ensure continuity of care even during the conflict, despite significant challenges. Thanks to our 400 colleagues in Sudan, we continue to provide the best possible care. This is the most important message we can send: not to leave the Sudanese people alone at this time. It is crucial to call for a political process towards a permanent ceasefire and a humanitarian actors protection. Thanks Qatar Foundation for making #WISH7 an opportunity to shed light on #Sudan ’s neglected war. #GlobalHealth #WISHSummit

Looking ahead, Professor Jassim MS AlSuwaidi shared Qatar's vision of expanding collaborations with leaders, including Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al Thani, Director of Public Health at the Ministry of Public Health - Qatar , as well as experts from Novartis and the World Heart Federation .

Professor Jassim MS AlSuwaidi also highlighted Qatar’s commitment to fostering #publichealth through initiatives like air-conditioned parks, which encourage active #lifestyles . The Ministry of Environment closely monitors these efforts to maximize their impact on community health.
