Arab League organises 16th Meeting of Technical Advisory Committee of Council of Arab Health Ministers

Mohamed Mandour The General Secretariat is convening the 16th Meeting of the Technical Advisory Committee of the Council of Arab Health Ministers on 28–29 April at the headquarters of the League of Arab States. The meeting was held in preparation for the 62nd Ordinary Session of the Council of Arab Health Ministers and its Executive Office, scheduled to take place in Geneva on 18–19 May in conjunction with the 78th Session of the World Health Assembly. Ambassador Dr. Haifa Abu Ghazaleh, Assistant Secretary-General and head of the Social Affairs Sector, affirmed that the Health and Humanitarian Aid Department of the Technical Secretariat would review several critical health issues. Foremost among these are the health conditions in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem and the occupied Syrian Golan, particularly in light of the unprecedented humanitarian and health crisis affecting the Gaza Strip and its healthcare services. The agenda further includes deliberations on sustaining health and humanitarian support for the Palestinian people in Gaza, as well as examining the health and humanitarian situation in the Union of the Comoros. Additionally, the Committee will address and follow up on a number of priority health topics, including: the development of medical and hospital tourism within the Arab region; the oversight of activities and programmes of the Arab Authority for Blood Transfusion Services and the Arab Drug Agency (WAAD); the recommendations of the Arab Health Committee for Emergency Preparedness and Response; the Arab guiding strategy to promote the application of health economics approaches to address major health priorities for the period 2025–2030; collective Arab efforts to combat drug abuse; as well as the proposed frameworks for physician visitation exchanges and training programmes among Arab countries. He further noted that the draft unified statement of the Council of Arab Health Ministers, intended for presentation at the 78th Session of the World Health Assembly, will be reviewed. The statement is scheduled to be delivered by the Minister of Health and Community Protection of the United Arab Emirates. Moreover, the meeting will ratify the winners of the 2025 Arab Doctor Award and consider financial matters related to the Arab Fund for Health Development. Ambassador Abu Ghazaleh also said that the recommendations arising from the Technical Advisory Committee will be presented to the Executive Office and subsequently submitted to the Council of Arab Health Ministers for formal adoption during the sessions to be held in Geneva on 18–19 May. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
