Over the week they will deliberate and adopt resolutions related to health topics of global interest and importance, appoint the Director-General, manage the WHO\u2019s finances, and review and approve the proposed programme budget.<\/p>\n<p>Following consideration at the January 2023 meeting of the WHO\u2019s Executive Board (EB152), the WHA agenda has been set to include a range of health topics, from defeating meningitis to action on nutrition. The World Heart Federation is closely following a number of items related to heart health and noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including agenda items:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>13.2 Political declaration of the third high-level meeting of the General Assembly on the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases, and mental health;<\/li>\n<li>13.3 Substandard and falsified medical products;<\/li>\n<li>13.4 Strengthening rehabilitation in health systems;<\/li>\n<li>16.1 Well-being and health promotion;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And the ongoing conversation around diagnostics.<\/p>\n<p>Together with our partners in the Global Coalition for Circulatory Health and the NCD Alliance, WHF will also be leading two in-depth constituency statements on Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and Emergency Preparedness, Response, and Resilience. This special category of statement made by Non-State Actors in Official Relations with WHO allows us a longer speaking interval and priority timing during the Member States&#8217; comments from the floor.<\/p>\n<p>The busy week of the World Health Assembly will also be filled with a number of relevant side events. WHF is pleased to be hosting two exciting panel discussions: <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.world-heart-federation.org\/en\/civicrm\/event\/register?reset=1&amp;id=122\"><em>Harnessing the <\/em><em>P<\/em><em>ower of <\/em><em>S<\/em><em>trategic <\/em><em>H<\/em><em>ealthcare <\/em><em>P<\/em><em>artnerships to <\/em><em>I<\/em><em>mprove <\/em><em>C<\/em><em>ardiovascular <\/em><em>H<\/em><em>ealth <\/em><em>O<\/em><em>utcomes<\/em><\/a> on Monday 22 May 2023 from 12:00 to 14:00 CEST and <a href=\"https:\/\/crm.world-heart-federation.org\/en\/civicrm\/event\/register?reset=1&amp;id=121\"><em>Countdown to 2030: Are we on track to achieving SDG 3.4?<\/em><\/a> on Tuesday 23 May 2023 from 12:00 to 14:00 CEST.<\/p>\n<p>We also look forward to participating in discussions with Member State and civil society representatives at other events on subjects ranging from climate change to obesity.
