Ecosystems
..bring together a community of stakeholders to develop a joint health agenda, aiming to address and find common solutions to regional health challenges
The main benefit of working together in an Ecosystem is the multiplier effect of collaborating in our International Network of Ecosystems.
Ecosystems:
• break down silos,
• transform healthcare delivery,
• create economic growth
