2018 Australasian Aid Conference - Panel 2a - Regional health security: what is Australia's role?

Populations in the Asia Pacific region, and globally, face increasingly complex health threats, which call for stronger, locally relevant and high-quality health systems capable of addressing prevailing public health issues including emerging infectious diseases. The global response has included the G7-endorsed Global Health Security Agenda, while the Australian response is continuing to evolve, most recently with the launch of the Australian Government’s Indo-Pacific Centre for Health Security. This panel discussed the concept of health security, how health security investment should be shaped to strengthen public health systems, and how vulnerable communities can help to shape solutions to health security threats.

Panellists:
Helen Evans, Global Health Alliance Melbourne (Chair)
Robin Davies, DFAT
Barbara McPake, Nossal Institute for Global Health
Amanda McClelland, International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies [via Skype]
Nicholas Thomson, Nossal Institute for Global Health

The 2018 Australasian Aid Conference was held at Crawford School of Public Policy, ANU, on 13-14 February, and was organised by the Development Policy Centre in partnership with The Asia Foundation.
