Global Health in Transition: A Private Sector Dialogue on Architecting a New Future

Global health is at a pivotal moment. In the years since the COVID-19 pandemic began, countries across the Global South are taking greater ownership of their health priorities, even as traditional development assistance grows more constrained and less predictable. At the same time, health systems face mounting pressure to deliver universal health coverage, strengthen pandemic preparedness, and accelerate innovation.

Against this backdrop, Global Health in Transition: A Private Sector Dialogue on Architecting a New Future captures the outcomes of a high-level private-sector consultation hosted in Bali by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, in partnership with the Asian Development Bank, PATH, and the Rockefeller Foundation. The dialogue brought together leaders from the private sector, government, and the development community to explore how next-generation public-private collaboration models can build more resilient and self-reliant health systems.

Drawing on insights from plenary discussions and sector-specific dialogues spanning vaccines, therapeutics, diagnostics, and medical devices, the report examines the structural shifts underway, the barriers to sustained private-sector engagement, and the enabling conditions needed to unlock long-term investment. It reflects a shared vision for a more coordinated, regionally anchored, and partnership-driven global health architecture, one that positions the private sector as a co-architect in delivering equitable, sustainable health outcomes.
