Description taken from World Health Organization event page:
‘The world is at a tipping point. Conflict, climate change, epidemics, and displacement are converging to create an unprecedented global health crisis. Across the globe, 305 million people are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance – a staggering reality that reflects the unrelenting pressure on communities and health systems worldwide.
‘The 2025 Health Emergency Appeal (HEA) identifies the critical priorities and resources required to address 42 ongoing health emergencies, including 17 Grade 3 crises – the most severe. These emergencies demand a coordinated, well-resourced global response to save lives, protect health, and restore hope to communities on the brink of collapse.
‘Health is at the heart of every emergency response. From delivering life-saving care and essential medicines to conducting disease surveillance and supporting local health systems, WHO is leading efforts to safeguard the lives of the most vulnerable in the most challenging circumstances. Yet, as needs soar, the gap between resources and realities continues to widen.
‘When health is at risk, everything is at risk.
‘This is a call to action. Together, we can save lives, uphold the universal right to health, and reaffirm the principles of international humanitarian law that ensure no one is left behind.
‘Join us for the high-level launch of WHO’s Health Emergency Appeal 2025 to learn about our response priorities, and hear firsthand experiences from our contributors, partners, and staff who are working tirelessly to reach communities in emergency settings with life-saving health interventions.’
