Para 1.20 | Who We Are Through a variety of methods, we provide access to a global healthcare community dedicated to capturing and disseminating the best evidence-based ideas and practices. Our vision A healthier world through global collaboration, innovation and shaping to evidence-based policy. Our mission • We forge connections and help build action-driven communities of knowledge who work together to address today's most pressing global healthcare challenges. • We convene and collaborate with the world's leading experts and the highest levels of decision-makers. • We create and disseminate world- class, evidence-based content and knowledge. • We promote active learning and support within and between communities. • We aim to influence healthcare policy globally. WISH In 2021 planning for WISH 2022 commenced including the convening of academic working groups to focus on the developing six health reports aimed at influencing policy at a local, national and international level. Health Security In 2021 (commenced late 2020) a piece of work was commissioned to assess the opportunity for creating an Institute of Global Health Security. A consultancy piece would look at how such an endeavour could address gaps in existing policy responses and architecture of global health. Case |
studies were to be prepared and outline governance structure and costs. Specifically, it would: Assess the opportunity for an institute or foundation for global health security, including the scale of the consequences of the covid-19 pandemic and gaps in the existing policy response. Prepare case studies of other global health institutions, how they were established, and the relevant lessons for an institute or foundation for global health security Design the governance model for an institute or foundation for global health security based on existing exemplars in global health institutions. CoronaVirus As part of the national effort to help uptake of vaccinations, 2 videos were commissioned to help inform the public of the merits of vaccinations and help dispel myths. The first video commissioned in November / December 2020 featured well known celebrities and were produced in a such a way that they were free for all health systems across the world to access for free. The video had the input of academics and clinicians and was launched by the NHS. It achieved a huge reach and has been nominated for and won a number of awards. In 2021 a second video was commissioned which focused on targeting harder to reach groups and some very specific concerns around risk and efficacy – Black and Minority Ethnics groups. A number of highprofile celebrities were featured and it followed the style as the first video – both were very successful.
