The WHA78 has prioritized social determinants, community empowerment, equitable health access, and climate-resilient health systems. Strengthening health systems and addressing equity can be further complemented by the Pandemic Treaty’s enforceable compliance mechanisms. Further, the WHA allocated 20% of pandemic-related products to the WHO to address the needs of low-income countries. Strengthening regional and international health cooperation through health diplomacy, promoting sustainable health systems, sharing digital infrastructure, and fostering local/regional pharmaceutical manufacturing are vital to turning WHA78’s commitments into equitable outcomes.
