Mozambique wants major changes to world health plans, aiming for stronger national systems that can better handle global health crises. Health Minister Ussene Isse spoke up about this at the International Association of National Public Health Institutes meeting on Wednesday. He said the gathering helps countries share ideas about current health threats and prepares everyone for future problems.
The minister talked to AIM reporters about how the world faces many health dangers right now. These include climate change, more people being born in Africa, wars breaking out, harmful new tech, less money for healthcare, unequal societies, and extreme nationalism hurting worldwide teamwork. All these things make health emergencies worse or cause disease outbreaks that hit poor countries hardest.
Isse believes science should guide global health planning going forward. He wants public health institutes in each country to become main supports for better healthcare everywhere. The minister thinks this approach will help nations respond faster when health crises happen instead of waiting for outside help.
