Priorities

We focus our activities on four priority areas: healthcare reform; non-communicable diseases; food security; and transgender health.

We carry out independent analysis of critical sector-wide and disease-specific challenges and opportunities, and offer new perspectives for informed discussion and debate.

As often as possible, policy recommendations are developed in collaboration with policymakers, experts and stakeholders in each area.
