Every October in Berlin, it brings high-level policymakers, academics, healthcare practitioners, and representatives from civil society and the private sector together to set the agenda for a healthier future. The World Health Summit hosts 2,500 participants from over 100 countries. It is built on the academic foundation of the M8 Alliance, an international network of 25 academic institutions in 18 countries. World Health Summit Regional Meeting Each year, the World Health Summit in Berlin is complimented by a Regional Meeting in a different part of the world. Health is a truly global challenge— most health issues affect people everywhere. At the same time, different regions and cultures have different health priorities. At the World Health Summit Regional Meeting, these local and regional topics come to the forefront. Each meeting is hosted and organized by the M8 Alliance member holding the World Health Summit International Presidency, which rotates every year. ii | World Health Summit Regional Meeting | Africa Kampala, Uganda | June 28–30, 2021 REGIONAL MEETING 2021 Date June 28-30, 2021 Presidents 2020 Charles Ibingira Makerere University Prof. Axel R.

They include: Global Health Security & Infectious Diseases COVID-19 Pandemic in Africa The threat to global health of infectious diseases remains The COVID-19 pandemic in Africa has been puzzling significant today. Preparedness and response to infectious to many public health experts given the fewer cases diseases is a matter of global interest. International health and deaths from COVID-19 than predicted.

RUHAKANA RUGUNDA Prime Minister of Uganda Former Prime Minister of Uganda nything that pertains to the health of individuals should be accorded the highest Aattention because of the intrinsic value of life. Without a healthy population, no nation can claim to be a progressive state. So, the news that the 2021 World Health Summit Regional Meeting will take place in Uganda, and on African soil for the first time, is exciting news because of the positive impact it is bound to have on the continent majorly in the field of health and the spill over into the economy and tourism industry. As the government, we pledge total support to this important event that has since 2009 done much to ensure that the health of the global community is improved. Uganda is a multi-ethnic country that has had its fair share of trials and tribulations in health; to mention two: the menace of the HIV/Aids pandemic in the 1980s and the Ebola plague in early 2000s. With the help of global partners, we stemmed the tide but, as Nelson Mandela once said, after climbing a great hill one realizes that there are other hills to climb. Today the threat of lifestyle diseases also known as non-communicable diseases is real not only in Uganda, but in the rest of the world. It is one of the ‘other hills’ we need to conquer. And I believe it’s in such gatherings that interventions are arrived at to guide policymakers and implementers in all must-win, life-threatening struggles. As a country, we remain the world’s second youngest population, with up to 48.7 percent of our populace under the age of 15. As we all know, the future belongs to them, and if we don’t do something that will keep our children and children’s children in ravishing health, then we will have cheated ourselves in the end.

    What Can We Learn from the HIV Response About Pandemic Preparedness for SARS-Cov-2 and Beyond

    What can we learn from the HIV response about pandemic preparedness for SARS-CoV-2 and beyond CLASS SESSIONS Dates: June 7 and 8, 2021 Time : 8:30am to 12:30pm Location: TBD/Zoom INSTRUCTORS Salim S Abdool Karim [email protected] / [email protected] Quarraisha Abdool Karim qa4@cumc. columbia.edu / [email protected] Course Description The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is the most recent and challenging pandemic facing humanity in the 21st century. Country responses to this 2020 pandemic provide important insights on retuns on public health investments made in response to the HIV pandemic but also shaped by political leadership and the balance or prioritisation of saving lives, livelihoods and viral suppression. The role of science and knowledge generation has been unprecedented including the development of several efficacious vaccines. The emergence of new variants of concern of SARS-CoV-2 even as SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are being rolled out across the globe; continued high rates of infections and deaths underscore our inter-dependence and the many research questions that remain unanswered. Global responses to the HIV pandemic have important lessons for responses to SARS-CoV-2. This interactive course will share lessons learnt from responses to SARS-CoV-2 including its interaction with HIV and what lessons our HIV response has for responding to SARS-CoV-2. Course Objectives By the end of the course, students will have a greater appreciation of key elements of an effective response to SARS-CoV-2; the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and HIV; and lessons from HIV for SARS-CoV-2.
