A recent announcement emphasized their dedication to fostering robust health systems and policies that can significantly impact public health outcomes.   In June 2024, the Ateneo School of Government actively participated in the Health Systems Strengthening Accelerator-hosted collaborative learning event funded by USAID in Jakarta, Indonesia. This event, held from June 5 to 7, brought together global health leaders and policymakers to share insights and strategies for building a robust health policy and systems research ecosystem.   As public health professionals, we know that policies shaped by comprehensive and inclusive approaches can lead to sustainable improvements. The insights gained from events like the USAID-funded Accelerator collaborative learning event underscore the importance of global cooperation in public health.   Kudos to the Ateneo School of Government for their leadership and vision! 🌐👩⚕️👨⚕️ ➡ https://bit.ly/3WbNaly   #PublicHealth #HealthPolicy #Ateneo #HealthSystems #EvidenceBasedPolicy #CommunityHealth #USAID #GlobalHealth Sweta Saxena, Results for Development
