The world's leading global health funders are turning to the private sector for a significant increase in donations, as concerns grow over a potential shortfall in government contributions. This move comes after the U.S. decided to exit the World Health Organization, sparking fears of a funding gap. With the private sector's support, global health initiatives can continue to tackle pressing issues, such as infectious diseases and pandemics, ensuring the continuation of life-saving programs. Key players in the healthcare industry are expected to play a major role in filling the funding void, promoting global health security and sustainability.
