Providing access to essential health care for the world’s most vulnerable people not only reflects America’s core values, it strengthens global stability, security, and prosperity. The World Health Organization plays a vital role in combatting health threats that impact everyone, including Americans, by preventing the spread of deadly diseases, coordinating responses to health emergencies, and implementing global health initiatives—saving millions of lives each year. We believe engaged US leadership is essential to helping build a more effective and efficient global health system with the WHO playing a central role. As we look to the future, we will continue to make the case that instead of retreating, leaders in the United States should prioritize strengthening WHO’s capacity to address global health challenges, ensuring that U.S. investments continue to build a healthier, safer future for all.
