Partnerships

Under the “Unlocking the Power of Data Initiative”, different events will be organised aiming to ensure that decisions are made and discussions are conducted on the basis of data and statistics. In addition, we are working on different communication tools to include a broader view of the topics covered in the different workstreams. To achieve this goal, we will collaborate with different partners depending on the type of event organised and the communication tools involved. Find out more on the initiative’s concept here.

Below you will find a list of partners with whom we have been collaborating up to now:

World Health Organization

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialised agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, it has six regional offices and 150 country offices worldwide. The WHO is one of our key partners for workstream 6 and was the co-host of the first event in January 2023 in Geneva. https://www.who.int/
