EXPERT GROUP
on Global Health
The Alliance for Global Health has convened a select group of Danish and international experts to provide actionable recommendations for strengthening Denmark’s role in global health. The expert group addresses critical global health challenges and opportunities, leveraging Denmark’s strengths and experience in the field.
Expert Group Report
The Expert Group has produced a concise report offering targeted recommendations for Denmark’s role in global health. Grounded in the latest evidence, including insights from the Lancet Commission on Investing in Health (Global Health 2050), the report serves as a roadmap for policymakers.
Why an Expert Group on Global Health?
01
Climate change, armed conflict, economic and political instability, and the legacy of the COVID-19 pandemic are placing immense pressure on health systems, particularly in the Global South. Simultaneously, there is a significant funding gap in global health initiatives.
02
Denmark has an opportunity to play a leading role in advancing global health, building on strong competencies in sexual and reproductive health, international development, innovation, and research.
03
The Expert Group aims to address these challenges by providing actionable and evidence-based recommendations to Danish policymakers.
